A Cry for Vengeance

1091 O God, whom I praise, don't stand silent and aloof 2 while the wicked slander me and tell lies about me. 3 They surround me with hateful words and fight against me for no reason. 4 I love them, but they try to destroy me with accusations even as I am praying for them! 5 They repay evil for good, and hatred for my love.

Matthew Henry's Commentary on Psalm 109:1-5

Commentary on Psalm 109:1-5

(Read Psalm 109:1-5)

It is the unspeakable comfort of all believers, that whoever is against them, God is for them; and to him they may apply as to one pleased to concern himself for them. David's enemies laughed at him for his devotion, but they could not laugh him out of it.
