"The wicked watches the righteous, and seeks to kill him."
Commentary
Gill's Exposition
The wicked watcheth the righteous,.... All his motions and steps, his works and actions; he watches for his halting, and to take all opportunities and advantages against him; see Jer
20:10 ; and seeketh to slay him; murder his reputation, destroy his substance, and take away his life: some understand it of the devil, who watches the saints, observes their failings, accuses then, before the throne, and seeks to devour them, Pe1 5:8 .
