Contextual Overview
7 Rest in Jehovah and wait patiently for Him; inflame not yourself with him who prospers in his way, with the man practicing evil wiles. 8 Abstain from anger and cease from fury; also do not inflame yourself to do evil. 9 For evildoers shall be cut off; and the ones waiting on Jehovah, they shall inherit the earth. 10 It is but a little while and the wicked shall not be; yea, you shall consider his place, and he is not. 11 But the meek shall inherit the earth; yea, they shall delight themselves in abundant peace. 12 The wicked plots against the righteous and gnashes on him with his teeth; 13 the Lord laughs at him, for He sees that his day is coming. 14 The wicked have drawn out the sword and they have trodden their bow, to cause the poor and needy to fall, to kill those who walk uprightly. 15 Their sword shall enter into their heart, and their bows shall be broken. 16 A little to the righteous is better than the abundance of many wicked.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Their sword shall enter into their own heart,.... As Saul's did into his, 1 Samuel 31:4;
and their bows shall be broken; the meaning is, that their efforts shall be fruitless, and their attempts in vain; the mischief they have contrived and designed for others shall fall upon themselves; see Psalms 7:15; and therefore the saints should not be fretful and envious.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Their sword shall enter into their own heart - Their purposes will recoil on themselves; or they will themselves suffer what they had devised for others. See the same sentiment expressed in Psalms 7:15-16; Psalms 9:15; compare Esther 7:10.
And their bows shall be broken - They will be defeated in their plans. God will cut them off, and not suffer them to execute their designs.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Psalms 37:15. Their sword shall enter into their own heart — All their execrations and maledictions shall fall upon themselves, and their power to do mischief shall be broken.
