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.

Psalms 35:21 In-Context

19 Let not those that are my enemies wrongfully rejoice over me; neither let those that hate me wink with the eye without a cause.

20 For they do not speak peace, but they devise deceitful matters against those that are meek in the land.

21 Yea, they opened their mouth wide against me and said, Aha, aha, our eye has seen it.

22 This thou hast seen, O LORD; do not keep silence; O Lord, do not be far from me.

23 Stir up thyself and awake to my judgment, even unto my cause, my God and my Lord.
