This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

The poet takes up this malignant “now our eye sees it” and gives another turn to it. With יהוה, alternates in Psa 35:22, Psa 35:23, cf. Psa 35:17, אֲדֹנָי, the pronominal force of which is revived in the combination אֱלֹחַי וַאדֹנָי (vid., Psa 16:2). חֵעִיר, carrying its object within itself, signifies to stir, rouse up, and הֵקִיץ, to break off, tear one's self away, gather one's self up from, sleep. “To my right,” viz., to prove it by facts; “to my cause,” to carry it on in my defence.
