Midrasch zu Tehillim 27:2

בִּקְרֹ֤ב עָלַ֨י ׀ מְרֵעִים֮ לֶאֱכֹ֪ל אֶת־בְּשָׂ֫רִ֥י צָרַ֣י וְאֹיְבַ֣י לִ֑י הֵ֖מָּה כָשְׁל֣וּ וְנָפָֽלוּ׃

Wenn Bösewichter auf mich eindringen, mein Fleisch zu fressen, wenn meine Widersacher und meine Feinde an mich [herankommen], so stürzen sie und fallen.

Hananiah the son of Hakinai did not send letters to his wife and did not know what was happening to his family. His wife sent to him, "Your daughter is grown; come and find her a match." [He wished to enter his house but found that it was turned in a different direction.] What did he do? He went and sat by the well. He heard the voices of the water-drawers saying, "Daughter of Hakinai, fill your pitcher and ascend." She went, and he went after her, until he came into his house. Just as his wife saw him, her soul left her. {There are those who say that it returned}
