Psalm 35:26

26 Que sean humillados y avergonzados
los que se alegran de mis dificultades;
que sean cubiertos de vergüenza y de deshonra
los que triunfan sobre mí.

Psalm 35:26 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 35:26

Let them be ashamed and brought to confusion together
In a body, as one man; as they gathered together against him, ( Psalms 35:15 ) ; so he entreats they might together be brought to shame and confusion, they not being able to execute their designs; their schemes being broken, their counsels defeated, and they exposed to contempt;

that rejoice at mine hurt;
the same with his adversity, or halting, ( Psalms 35:15 ) ;

let them be clothed with shame and dishonour that magnify [themselves]
against me;
let them be covered with it, as a man is with a garment; who magnified themselves, opened their mouths in great swelling words of vanity against him, vaunted and bragged over him, as in their power, and at their will.

Psalm 35:26 In-Context

24 Declárame inocente, oh Señor
mi Dios, porque tú haces justicia;
no permitas que mis enemigos se rían de mí en mis dificultades.

25 No les permitas decir: «¡Miren, conseguimos lo que queríamos!
¡Ahora lo comeremos vivo!».

26 Que sean humillados y avergonzados
los que se alegran de mis dificultades;
que sean cubiertos de vergüenza y de deshonra
los que triunfan sobre mí.

27 Pero dales mucha alegría a los que vinieron a defenderme;
que todo el tiempo digan: «¡Grande es el Señor
,
quien se deleita en bendecir a su siervo con paz!».

28 Entonces proclamaré tu justicia
y te alabaré todo el día.
