Contextual Overview

7 Holde thee still in God, and wayte paciently vpon him: fret not thy selfe at him whose way doth prosper, at the man that doth abhominations. 8 Leaue of from wrath, and let go displeasure: fret not thy selfe, lest thou be moued to do euill. 9 For the malitious doers shalbe rooted out: and they that paciently wayte after God, they shall inherite the lande. 10 [Looke] at them yet a litle whyle, and the vngodly shalbe cleane gone: thou shalt looke after his place, and he shall not be [there] 11 But the meeke spirited shall possesse the earth: and shalbe delighted in the aboundaunce of peace. 12 The vngodly busieth his head [all] against the iust: and gnasheth vpon him with his teeth. 13 The Lorde shall laugh him to scorne: for he seeth that his day is comming. 14 The vngodly haue drawen out the sworde, and haue bended their bowe: to cast downe the poore and needie, and to slay such as be of right conuersation. 15 But their sworde shal go thorow their owne heart: & their bow shalbe broken. 16 A small thing that the righteous hath: is better then great riches of ye vngodly.

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.
