Contextual Overview

5 My enemies are saying evil things about me. They say, "When will he die and be forgotten?" 6 Some people come to see me, but they lie. They just come to get bad news. Then they go and gossip. 7 All my enemies whisper about me and think the worst about me. 8 They say, "He has a terrible disease. He will never get out of bed again." 9 My best and truest friend, who ate at my table, has even turned against me. 10 Lord , have mercy on me. Give me strength so I can pay them back. 11 Because my enemies do not defeat me, I know you are pleased with me. 12 Because I am innocent, you support me and will let me be with you forever. 13 Praise the Lord , the God of Israel. He has always been, and he will always be. Amen and amen.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

All that hate me whisper together against me,.... That is, they privately conspired against him; see Matthew 22:15;

against me do they devise my hurt; not only to take away his name and credit, but his life.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

All that hate me whisper together against me - They talk the matter over where they suppose that no one can hear; they endeavonr to collect and arrange all that can be said against me; they place all that they can say or think as individuals, all that they have separately known or suspected, into “common stock,” and make use of it against me. There is a conspiracy against me - a purpose to do me all the evil that they can. This shows that, in the apprehension of the sufferer, the one who came to see for himself Psalms 41:6 came as one of a company - as one deputed or delegated to find some new occasion for a charge against him, and that he had not to suffer under the single malignity of one, but under the combined malignity of many.

Against me do they devise my hurt - Margin, as in Hebrew: “evil to me.” That is, they devise some report, the truth of which they endeavor to confirm by something that they may observe in my sickness which will be injurious to me, and which will prove to the world that I am a bad man - a man by whose death the world would be benefited. The slanderous report on which they seemed to agree is mentioned in the following verse - that he was suffering under a disease which was directly and manifestly the result of a sinful life, and that it must be fatal.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 41:7. All that hate me whisper together against me — This is in consequence of the information given by the hypocritical friend, who came to him with the lying tongue, and whose heart gathereth iniquity to itself, which, when he went abroad, he told to others as ill-minded as himself, and they also drew their wicked inferences.
