Gill's Notes on the Bible
Draw nigh unto my soul,.... God his father, while he was suffering, stood afar off from him; wherefore he desires that he would draw nigh to him in the manifestations of his love and favour to him; which he did, when he made known to him the way of life, and made him full of joy with his countenance;
[and] redeem it: that is, from the power of the grave; not leave it there, but raise him from the dead, and give him glory, as he did;
deliver me, because of mine enemies; that they might not triumph over him, as if, being dead, he should rise no more; and so the Targum,
"that mine enemies might not lift up themselves against me.''
Or the meaning is, deliver me from the grave, raise me from the dead, that I may requite mine enemies, and take vengeance on them; see
Psalms 41:8.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Draw nigh unto my soul - To me - for my life is in danger.
And redeem it - Ransom it; save it from ruin. See the notes at Isaiah 43:3; notes at Isaiah 44:22.
Deliver me, because of mine enemies - Because they are so numerous, so powerful, and so determined on my destruction. Compare Psalms 13:4.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Psalms 69:18. Deliver me because of mine enemies. — Probably they now began to think that the redemption of these captives was not an impossible thing; that it was not far off; and therefore they had great rage, because they found their time was but short.
