NET © Notes

sn Of course, he means like his enemy when he is judged, not when he is thriving in prosperity and luxury.

tn The form is the Hitpolel participle from קוּם (qum): “those who are rising up against me,” or “my adversary.”

tc The LXX made a free paraphrase: “No, but let my enemies be as the overthrow of the ungodly, and they that rise up against me as the destruction of transgressors.”
