Haydock's commentary

Title. This psalm is a sequel to the former, (Worthington) and refers to the malevolent speeches of Saul's courtiers, (1 Kings xxiv. 10., and xxvi. 7.; Calmet) and to the proceedings of the Jews against Christ. (St. Jerome)

It is an invective against hypocrites, (Calmet) and detractors. (Berthier)
