Psalms 35:21

Yea, they opened their mouth wide against me
In laughter, scorn, and derision; see ( Psalms 22:7 Psalms 22:8 ) ;

[and] said, Aha, aha:
a word expressive of joy; and the doubling it shows the greatness of it;

our eye hath seen [it];
what their heart wished for; namely, the distress of him, whose enemies they were.

Psalm 35:21 In-Context

19 Don't let those who are wrongfully my enemies gloat over me; and those who hate me unprovoked -don't let them smirk at me.
20 For they don't speak words of peace but devise ways to deceive the peaceful of the land.
21 They shout to accuse me, "Aha! Aha! we saw you with our own eyes!"
22 You saw them, ADONAI; don't stay silent. Adonai, don't stay far away from me.
23 Wake up! Get up, my God, my Lord! Defend me and my cause!
