Psalms 83:13 - Exposition

O my God, make them like a wheel; rather, like whirling dust— the dust that is caught up by an eddy of wind, and twisted round and round (see Isaiah 17:13 ). As the stubble before the wind. Both the "whirling dust" and the "stubble" are images of what is lightest, most shifting, and of least account (see Job 13:25 ; Job 15:7 ; Job 21:18 ; Job 41:29 ; Isaiah 40:24 ; Isaiah 41:2 ; Jeremiah 13:24 ; Malachi 4:1 ).
