Mine enemies chased me— The prophet in this and the following verses describes his own sufferings, when his enemies seized him, and cast him into the dungeon. See Jeremiah 20:7; Jeremiah 37:15. He compares them to a fowler who is in pursuit of a bird, as they took every opportunity to deprive him of his life or liberty, and that without any provocation on his part. See Lowth, and Calmet.
