Let them be confounded and come to nothing that detract my soul; let them be covered with confusion and shame that seek my hurt.
John Gill
Let them be confounded,.... See Psa 70:2; and consumed; like smoke; see Psa 37:20; as antichrist will be with the breath of Christ's mouth, and the brightness of his coming, Th2 2:8; that are adversaries to my soul; that hated him with a diabolical hatred, as the devil hates the souls of men, and who has his name "Satan" from the word here used; all wicked men are Satans, full of enmity against God, and all good men; and such were David's enemies, spiteful and malicious, and nothing would satisfy them but his life; let them be covered with reproach and dishonour; as with a garment: that seek my hurt; see Psa 35:26; as Absalom and his company; so Arama.
