Forgive my ignorance, in this context, who is "he"?
Like, what kind of person is being discussed in this passage?
Mostly just curious. But not curious enough to tarnish my Google search history by looking it up.
It's a general enemy. Here are the first few verses, which got left out
1 My God, whom I praise,
do not remain silent,
2 for people who are wicked and deceitful have opened their mouths against me;
they have spoken against me with lying tongues.
3 With words of hatred they surround me;
they attack me without cause.
4 In return for my friendship they accuse me,
but I am a man of prayer.
5 They repay me evil for good,
and hatred for my friendship.
6 Appoint someone evil to oppose my enemy;
let an accuser stand at his right hand.
7 When he is tried, let him be found guilty,
and may his prayers condemn him.
It's not talking about a specific person, but enemies in general.
Wikipedia says it's attributed to King David but doesn't give more context. Maybe cursing someone that betrayed him?
It's a psalm that wishes bad on those who oppose you and the love you give. Basically a disstrack on all your enemies.
