The Psalms are prophetic, looking far into the future, and they see two things.. the ‘ends’ of two things. The greek is “tel” and means “end-aim”, the end-aims of “the way” of “faith”, and the end-aim of wickedness/deliberate evil. The final results of good, and the final results of evil.
Ps.64:6,7,8 - They make evil plans and say, "We'll commit a perfect crime. No one knows our thoughts." [Even though they broadcast them?] “But God shall shoot at them with an arrow”<-metaphor, man’s own arrow (the split atom will become a lake, other thoughts of it are totally fake) “suddenly shall they be wounded. He will turn their own tongues against them and bring them to ruin..”
But the forefather, David also wrote - “I heard God say two things, ‘I am powerful, and I am very kind” (Ps.62:11,12, ). [Kind - checed - favour.] “For you render to each according to their own works.”
Ps.64:9 - “All mankind shall fear (be in awe) and shall declare the work of God, for they shall wisely consider of his doing.” [Other versions - will declare the work of God, and consider what He has done — Then all mankind ..will tell about God’s work, for they will understand what he has done — shall wisely consider of his doing.]
Psalm 64:4,5,9 - “I will always praise you! As long as I am living! I will sing joyful praises and be filled with excitement like a guest at a banquet! The” (made) “righteous shall be glad! And will shelter in Yhvh (the LORD, God). All the” (made) “upright in heart shall glory and rejoice in him.”
Isaiah 45:22 23 - “Turn to Me and be saved, all the ends of the earth, for I am God, and there is no other. I have sworn by oath, gone out from my mouth in righteousness, a word, and it turns not back” - it wiLL happen, it wiLL be - “that to me, does every knee bow and every tongue swear.” Is.61:7 - “..everlasting joy will be theirs.”
How do you create genuinely able to think and reason beings, aNd, keep paradise/perfection intact? For each and every one. I think there’s only one way - total herd immunity! From eveR straying from God who iS life and “is perfect” (Mt.5:48) so the result/wages of imperfect - greek hamartia, missing the mark - is? The opposite of life, fading, hades - no longer seen/gone. But the REMEDY was built in from the beginning/foundation.
