They are inclosed in their own fat: with their mouth they speak proudly.
Están atrapados por su propia codicia y egoísmo: hablan con palabras arrogantes y presuntuosas.
La codicia y el orgullo atrapan a las personas y se reflejan en sus palabras arrogantes.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In Psalm 17, David is praying earnestly to God for deliverance and vindication from his enemies, who are depicted as proud and self-absorbed. The phrase "enclosed in their own fat" is a metaphorical expression in ancient Hebrew poetry, likely referring to people who are stubbornly complacent due to their wealth or status, making them resistant to correction. This psalm reflects David's experiences of persecution, possibly during his conflicts with King Saul, as a way to express trust in God's justice amid personal trials.
