The figure of Psalms 59:6 is dropped. A flood of cursing and falsehood (Psalms 59:12) pours from their mouth (Proverbs 15:2; Proverbs 15:28); they menace him with death, or openly boast that he will soon be got rid of; cp. Psalms 52:2, note.

-Say they" is rightly inserted. -Who doth hear"? is not the Psalmist's complaint that there is no one to take his part, but the scornful sneer of his enemies, who do not believe that God cares for His servant. Cp. Psalms 10:4; Psalms 10:11; Psalms 10:13; Psalms 64:5; Psalms 73:11; Psalms 94:7.
