Psalms 36:11

11 Do not let the foot of the arrogant come near me or the hand of the wicked drive me away.

Psalms 36:11 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 36:11

Let not the foot of pride come against me
Meaning some proud enemy, such an one as Ahithophel, of whom R. Obadiah expounds, it, who lifted up his heel against him; and is applicable to any haughty enemy of Christ and his people, and particularly to antichrist, the man of sin, that exalts himself above all that is called God;

and let not the hand of the wicked remove me;
either from the house of God; or from his throne, that high station and dignity in which he was placed.

Psalms 36:11 In-Context

9 for with You is life's fountain. In Your light we will see light.
10 Spread Your faithful love over those who know You, and Your righteousness over the upright in heart.
11 Do not let the foot of the arrogant come near me or the hand of the wicked drive me away.
12 There the evildoers fall; they have been thrown down and cannot rise.
