And at evening let them return; and let them make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.

Verse 14 is found in chapter 59 of Psalms. Psalm 59 describes a persecution in which enemies watch the psalmist’s house and wait for his downfall. The prayer asks God not only to protect him, but to make his rule visible among the nations. Images of dogs roaming the city emphasize the constant threat. Against them, the psalmist repeatedly declares that God is his strength and refuge, transforming danger into a permanent reason for song.

Vertilge sie ohne alle Gnade; vertilge sie, daß sie nichts seien und innewerden, daß Gott Herrscher sei in Jakob, in aller Welt. (Sela.)
Vuelvan pues a la tarde, y ladren como perros, Y rodeen la ciudad.
Que regresen al atardecer, gruñan como perros y ronden la ciudad.
Ils reviennent chaque soir, ils hurlent comme des chiens, Ils font le tour de la ville.
Vadano pure, e vengano la sera; romoreggino come cani, E circuiscano la città.
E tornem a vir à tarde, e dêem ganidos como cães, e cerquem a cidade.
他們晚上轉回, 叫號如狗,圍城繞行。
