Psalms 70:3
May those who say, “Aha, aha!” retreat because of their shame.
BSB
ASV
Let them be turned back by reason of their shame That say, Aha, aha.
KJV
Let them be turned back for a reward of their shame that say, Aha, aha.
Let them be turned back for a reward of their shame,.... In Psa 40:15 it is, "let them be desolate"; which seems to respect their land and houses, here their persons; See Gill on Psa 40:15; that say; in Psa 40:15 it is added, "to me"; not to his people, but himself, aha, aha: rejoicing at his calamity and distress. The Targum is, "we are glad, we are glad;'' See Gill on Psa 40:15, and compare with this Eze 25:3.
