Psalms 55:3 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

The voice of the enemy, i.e. their clamours, and threats, and slanders, and insolent boastings; all which are hateful to thee, as well as injurious to me. They cast iniquity upon me: the sense is, either,

1. They make me the great object of their wicked, and injurious, and mischievous practices; or,

2. They lay many crimes to my charge falsely, as if by my wickedness I was the cause of all my calamities. They hate me; their anger and rage against me is no sudden and transitory passion, but is boiled up into malice and hatred.

Psalms 55:3

3 Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked: for they cast iniquity upon me, and in wrath they hate me.
