Don’t let those who are my enemies wrongfully rejoice over me;
neither let those who hate me without a cause wink their eyes.
THE SURROUNDING PASSAGE
Psalms 35:19 in context
Psalms 35:16–22
16
Like the profane mockers in feasts,
they gnashed their teeth at me.
17
Lord, how long will you look on?
Rescue my soul from their destruction,
my precious life from the lions.
18
I will give you thanks in the great assembly.
I will praise you among many people.
19
Selected verse
Don’t let those who are my enemies wrongfully rejoice over me;
neither let those who hate me without a cause wink their eyes.
20
For they don’t speak peace,
but they devise deceitful words against those who are quiet in the land.
21
Yes, they opened their mouth wide against me.
They said, “Aha! Aha! Our eye has seen it!”
22
You have seen it, LORD. Don’t keep silent.
Lord, don’t be far from me.
