I hate the double-minded,
but I love your law.
You are my hiding-place and my shield;
I hope in your word.
Go away from me, you evildoers,
that I may keep the commandments of my God.
"I hate half-heartedness", would also be an accurate translation.
Brokeness, illness, or sadness could replace evildoers.
The failure to do and to be what would be a full-hearted expression of God's intention is often a source of separation, depression, and worse.
To embrace God's intention is to find our best self.
Psalm 119
