Psalms 35:19 - Exposition

Let not them that are mine enemies wrongfully rejoice over me (comp. Psalms 38:19 , where David says that those who "hated him wrongfully" were "multiplied"). David feels that no one had any reason to hate him, since he had always sought the good of all with whom he came into contact (see Psalms 35:12 ). Neither let them wink with the eye that hate me without a cause ; i.e. let them not have cause to wink to each other in self-congratulation on their having triumphed over me completely.
