Wesley's Notes for Psalms 109:19

109:17 Delighted not - In desiring and promoting the welfare of others.

109:18 Garment - Which a man wears constantly. Like water - Water in the cavity of the belly, between the bowels, is almost certain death. And oil soaking into any of the bones, will soon utterly destroy it.

109:20 That speak evil against my soul - With design to take away my life.

109:21 Is good - Above the mercy of all the creatures.
