Contextual Overview
7 (36-7) Be subject to the Lord and pray to him. Envy not the man who prospereth in his way; the man who doth unjust things. 8 (36-8) Cease from anger, and leave rage; have no emulation to do evil. 9 (36-9) For evildoers shall be cut off: but they that wait upon the Lord, they shall inherit the land. 10 (36-10) For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: and thou shalt seek his place, and shalt not find it. 11 (36-11) But the meek shall inherit the land, and shall delight in abundance of peace. 12 (36-12) The sinner shall watch the just man: and shall gnash upon him with his teeth. 13 (36-13) But the Lord shall laugh at him: for he foreseeth that his day shall come. 14 (36-14) The wicked have drawn out the sword: they have bent their bow. To cast down the poor and needy, to kill the upright of heart. 15 (36-15) Let their sword enter into their own hearts, and let their bow be broken. 16 (36-16) Better is a little to the just, than the great riches of the wicked.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Their sword shall enter into their own heart,.... As Saul's did into his, 1 Samuel 31:4;
and their bows shall be broken; the meaning is, that their efforts shall be fruitless, and their attempts in vain; the mischief they have contrived and designed for others shall fall upon themselves; see Psalms 7:15; and therefore the saints should not be fretful and envious.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Their sword shall enter into their own heart - Their purposes will recoil on themselves; or they will themselves suffer what they had devised for others. See the same sentiment expressed in Psalms 7:15-16; Psalms 9:15; compare Esther 7:10.
And their bows shall be broken - They will be defeated in their plans. God will cut them off, and not suffer them to execute their designs.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Psalms 37:15. Their sword shall enter into their own heart — All their execrations and maledictions shall fall upon themselves, and their power to do mischief shall be broken.
