### Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity, for Yahweh has heard the voice of my weeping.
*Type*: prophecy
*Summary*: The psalmist declares a future and definitive separation between the righteous sufferer and those who practice evil, predicting that the wicked will be forced to withdraw.
*Historical context*: Theological analysis suggests that this statement transcends David's personal situation to serve as a messianic declaration regarding the ultimate judgment and the separation of the righteous from the lawless.
*Related to*:
### Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity
*Type*: fulfillment
*Summary*: Jesus Christ utilizes these exact words to exercise his authority as the Messianic Judge, commanding the wicked to leave his presence at the Final Judgment.
*Historical context*: In [[Matt-07#v23|Matthew 7:23]] and [[Luke-13#v27|Luke 13:27]], Jesus quotes [[Ps-06#v8|Psalm 6:8]] verbatim during the Sermon on the Mount and in his later teachings to describe the banishment of 'workers of lawlessness' (evildoers) on the day of judgment, thereby fulfilling the role of the one whose voice is heard by God and who dismisses the unrighteous.
*Related to*: Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity, for Yahweh has heard the voice of my weeping.
### May all my enemies be ashamed and dismayed. They shall turn back, they shall be disgraced suddenly.
*Type*: prophecy
*Summary*: A prediction that those who oppose the Lord's anointed will experience a sudden, overwhelming reversal of their plans and be subjected to public shame and retreat.
*Historical context*: This verse uses the future tense ('they shall turn back') to predict the inevitable failure of conspiracies against the King of Israel and, typologically, against the Kingdom of God.
*Related to*:
### They shall turn back, they shall be disgraced suddenly.
*Type*: fulfillment
*Summary*: This prophecy was realized historically in the sudden collapse of internal rebellions against King David and spiritually in the triumph of Christ over his adversaries.
*Historical context*: Historians and theologians point to the sudden end of the Absalom rebellion in [[2 Sam|2 Samuel 18]], where the rebel army was abruptly defeated and 'turned back' in disgrace. Furthermore, Christian theology identifies this as fulfilled in the 'disgrace' of principalities and powers at Christ's resurrection ([[Col-02#v15|Colossians 2:15]]) and his ultimate victory over those who mocked him.
*Related to*: May all my enemies be ashamed and dismayed. They shall turn back, they shall be disgraced suddenly.
