Psalms 109:23 meaning and explanation
I am fading away like a lengthening shadow; I am shaken off like a locust.
Psalms 109:23, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
In this psalm David cries out to God against enemies who repay his love with false accusations. Here in verse 23 he turns from the curses of verses 6 to 20 back to his own condition, describing himself as a lengthening shadow, the long evening shadow that signals the day is nearly over, a common biblical image for a life close to ending.
