Listen to Psalm 38:20
20 Quelli, dico, che mi rendono mal per bene; Che mi sono avversari, in iscambio di ciò che ho loro procacciato del bene.

Psalm 38:20 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 38:20

They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries
(See Gill on Psalms 35:12);

because I follow [the thing that] good [is];
or "follow good"; a good God, whom his soul followed hard after, ( Psalms 63:8 ) ; the good Shepherd of the sheep, who led him into green pastures, whither he followed him, ( Psalms 23:1-3 ) ; the good Spirit of God his guide, whom he walked after, ( Romans 8:1 ) ; good and holy men of God, whom he took for examples and copied after; and every good work, which he pursued with eagerness and pleasure; and all this drew upon him the hatred of his adversaries.

Psalm 38:20 In-Context

18 Mentre io dichiaro la mia iniquità, E sono angosciato per lo mio peccato;
19 I miei nemici vivono, e si fortificano; E quelli che mi odiano a torto s’ingrandiscono.
20 Quelli, dico, che mi rendono mal per bene; Che mi sono avversari, in iscambio di ciò che ho loro procacciato del bene.
21 Signore, non abbandonarmi; Dio mio, non allontanarti da me.
22 Affrettati al mio aiuto, O Signore, mia salute.
