Footnotes
- 31 Heb “may they be embarrassed and ashamed together, the ones seeking my life to snatch it away.”
- 32 The four prefixed verbal forms in this verse (“may those … be … embarrassed and ashamed … may those … be turned back and ashamed”) are understood as jussives. The psalmist is calling judgment down on his enemies. See Ps 35:4 for a similar prayer.
