The righteous will rejoice when they see they are avenged; they will wash their feet in the blood of the wicked.
David challenges his enemies with a piercing question: Do you yourselves not see the justice of my cause? When a man's innocence is evident enough to appeal to his very accusers, he stands on solid ground. He exposes their calumnies by demanding their own testimony to his integrity.

Commenting on Psalm 58:1-11
The righteous man will not lift a finger in revenge, but his soul shall rest content to see God's justice triumph, and he will say Amen to the condemnation of the wicked without question. The damnation of sinners shall not mar the happiness of saints.

Break their teeth so they cannot prey on others, as lions live by rapine. Let their arrows fall at their feet and miss the mark entirely. Let them waste away like a flood that soaks into the ground and vanishes, water spilled that cannot be gathered up again.
