1091 O God of my praise, be not silent, 2 For the mouth of wickedness, and the mouth of deceit, Against me they have opened, They have spoken with me—A tongue of falsehood, and words of hatred! 3 They have compassed me about, And they fight me without cause. 4 For my love they oppose me, and I—prayer! 5 And they set against me 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.
