NETBible

May those who are trying to take my life be embarrassed and ashamed!¹ May those who want to harm me be turned back and ashamed!²

NET Notes

¹tn Heb “may they be embarrassed and ashamed, the ones seeking my life.” Ps 40:14 has “together” after “ashamed,” and “to snatch it away” after “my life.”

²tn The four prefixed verbal forms in this verse are understood as jussives. The psalmist is calling judgment down on his enemies.

²sn See Ps 35:4 for a similar prayer.
