Psalms 62:3 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Ye, mine enemies, to whom now he turneth his speech. Against a man, i.e. against me, a man like yourselves, whom common humanity obligeth you to pity; a single man, who is no fit match for you; a poor, contemptible, miserable, and impotent creature, as the word man is oft used, as Psalms 9:20, Psalms 82:7, &c., a dead dog, or a flea, or a partridge, as upon the same account he calleth himself, 1 Samuel 24:14, 1 Samuel 26:20, whom you cannot thus pursue without reflecting disparagement upon yourselves, as he there saith. Ye shall be slain all of you; the mischief which you design for me shall fall upon your own heads. And accordingly Saul and the generality of these men were slain, 1Sa 31. As a bowing wall shall ye be, and as a tottering fence, i.e. as suddenly and easily overthrown as these are.

Psalms 62:3

3 How long will ye imagine mischief against a man? ye shall be slain all of you: as a bowing wall shall ye be, and as a tottering fence.
