Contextual Overview
17Lord, how long do You behold? Keep my soul back from their desolations, || My only one from young lions. 18I thank You in a great assembly, || I praise You among a mighty people. 19Do not let my enemies rejoice over me [with] falsehood, || Those hating me without cause wink the eye. 20For they do not speak peace, || And against the quiet of the land, || They devise deceitful words, 21And they enlarge their mouth against me, || They said, "Aha, aha, our eye has seen." 22You have seen, O YHWH, || Do not be silent, O Lord—do not be far from me,23Stir up, and wake to my judgment, || My God, and my Lord, to my plea. 24Judge me according to Your righteousness, O YHWH my God, || And they do not rejoice over me. 25They do not say in their heart, "Aha, our desire." They do not say, "We swallowed him up." 26They are ashamed and confounded together, || Who are rejoicing at my evil. They put on shame and confusion, || Who are magnifying themselves against me.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
[This] thou hast seen, O Lord,.... The insults and derisions of these men, and the injuries they did to him, whom they hated. God is omniscient, and sees all things, all the evil wicked men do to him; and he will requite them in his own time; see Psalms 10:14;
keep not silence; meaning at his prayers; that he would not be as one deaf and dumb, turning his ears from his cries, and giving no answer to his requests; see Psalms 28:1;
O Lord, be not far from me; meaning not as to his general presence, in which sense he is not far from any, Acts 17:7; but with respect to his gracious presence and appearance to him for help and deliverance; see
Psalms 22:1.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
This thou hast seen, O Lord - Thou hast seen what they have done, as they profess to have seen what I have done Psalms 35:21. Thine eye has been upon all their movements, as they say that theirs has been upon mine. Compare the notes at Psalms 35:17.
Keep not silence - That is, Speak; rebuke them; punish them. God seemed to look on with unconcern. As we express it, he “said nothing.” He appeared to pay no attention to what was done, but suffered them to do as they pleased without interposing to rebuke or check them. Compare the notes at Psalms 28:1.
O Lord, be not far from me - Compare the notes at Psalms 10:1.
