Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 161. - Princes have persecuted me without a cause. The "princes" may be either foreign or native; but from ver. 23 it would rather appear that native princes are intended. But my heart standeth in awe of thy Word. Yet I do not fear them, or heed what they say. Of nothing do I stand in awe, except "thy Word."

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English ReadersSCHIN.(161) Princes.--Here again we have an indication of the national character of the psalm. It was the whole community which suffered from the intrigues and violence of princes.
