Gill's Notes on the Bible

Behold, I say, how they reward us,.... Evil for good:

to come to cast us out of thy possession, which thou hast given us to inherit; the land of Canaan was their inheritance, an inheritance given them by God, their covenant God and Father, who had a right to dispose of it; and yet so given, that it was still his possession, he was the Lord and Proprietor, they but tenants under him; all which, as they were so many aggravations of the guilt of their enemies, so they were so many arguments with the Lord to protect them.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Chronicles 20:11. They reward us — Six of Kennicott's and De Rossi's MSS. add רעה evil: "Behold, they reward us EVIL." This is also the reading of the Targum.
