140:9 The psalmist asked God to bring the lies of his attackers back down on their heads (7:15-16; 40:14-15; Pr 26:27).
140:10-11 Based on Aramaic and Ugaritic usage, the Hebrew word for abyss probably means “watery pits.”
140:12 The Lord defends the most vulnerable people in society (10:18; 68:5; 146:7-9; Dt 10:18).
140:13 To live in your presence is literally “dwell before you.” To stand, walk, or live in God’s presence implies a good relationship with God (16:11; 41:12; 56:13; Gn 17:1; 1Kg 2:4; 3:6; 8:23).
