Salmos 35:14

14 Me vestía yo de luto,como por un amigo o un hermano.Afligido, inclinaba la cabeza,como si llorara por mi madre.

Salmos 35:14 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 35:14

I behaved myself as though [he had been] my friend [or]
brother
Meaning either Saul or Doeg the Edomite, or some such evil man; somewhat like this he says of Ahithophel, ( Psalms 41:9 ) ( 55:13 ) ; and Arama thinks he is meant here; as Christ of Judas, whom he called friend, when he came to betray him; and who not only ate with him at table of his bread, but was steward of his family, and carried the bag, ( Matthew 26:50 ) ( John 13:29 ) ;

I bowed down heavily, as one that mourneth [for his] mother;
or as a mother that mourneth for her son, as Jarchi interprets it, whose affections are very strong; and thus Christ wept over Jerusalem, and had a tender concern for and sympathy with the Jews, his implacable enemies, and wept over them, and prayed for them, ( Luke 19:41 ) ( Matthew 23:37 ) ( Luke 23:34 ) .

Salmos 35:14 In-Context

12 Me devuelven mal por bien,y eso me hiere en el alma;

13 pues cuando ellos enfermabanyo me vestía de luto,me afligía y ayunaba.¡Ay, si pudiera retractarme de mis oraciones!

14 Me vestía yo de luto,como por un amigo o un hermano.Afligido, inclinaba la cabeza,como si llorara por mi madre.

15 Pero yo tropecé, y ellos se alegraron,y a una se juntaron contra mí.Gente extraña, que yo no conocía,me calumniaba sin cesar.

16 Me atormentaban, se burlaban de mí,y contra mí rechinaban los dientes.
