Gill's Notes on the Bible

Let them be confounded,.... See Psalms 70:2;

[and] consumed; like smoke; see Psalms 37:20; as antichrist will be with the breath of Christ's mouth, and the brightness of his coming, 2 Thessalonians 2:8;

that are adversaries to my soul; that hated him with a diabolical hatred, as the devil hates the souls of men, and who has his name "Satan" from the word here used; all wicked men are Satans, full of enmity against God, and all good men; and such were David's enemies, spiteful and malicious, and nothing would satisfy them but his life;

let them be covered [with] reproach and dishonour; as with a garment:

that seek my hurt; see Psalms 35:26; as Absalom and his company; so Arama.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Let them be confounded and consumed - See the notes at the similar passage in Psalms 35:4. The sentiment in this verse is the same; the language is slightly varied. See also Psalms 40:14, where the same sentiment occurs.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 71:13. Let them be confounded — They shall be confounded: these are prophetic denunciations.
