Psalms 6:10 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

Let all mine enemies be ashamed Or, they shall be ashamed, of their vain confidence; and sore vexed Because of their great and unexpected disappointment. Let them return Namely, from their wicked ways, and from their hostile and malicious practices against me. Hebrew, ישׁבו, jeshubu, they shall return, turn back, or be converted; that is, repent of their sins and return to their obedience. And be ashamed suddenly Sooner than I could hope, or they did expect, or believe. “Many mournful Psalms,” says Mr. Scott, “end thus triumphantly, for the encouragement of other mourners to hope and pray.”
