Commentaries:
Adam Clarke
They gather themselves together - They form cabals; have secret meetings and consultations how they may most effectually destroy me, under the pretense of justice and safety to the state.
They hide themselves - They do all secretly.
They mark my steps - They are constantly at my heels.
They wait for my soul - They lie in wait for my life. Our translators have missed the meaning of nephesh and , - which generally signify the animal life, not the immortal spirit, - more than any other words in the Old or New Testament.
