John Trapp on Psalms 31:13

Verſ. 13. For I have heard the ſlander of many] Or, as Calvin, Mollerus, and others render it, Magnorum, of the great ones, ſuch as take counſel (ſo it followeth here) which the Vulgar ſeldome do; and their tongues oft are no ſlander, as we ſay.

Fear was on every ſide] Mager miſſabib, Paſhurs new name and doom, Jer. 20.3, 4. But good Davids condition at this time; without were fightings, within were feares.

While they took counſel together againſt mee] See 2 Sam. 16.20. where we have an expoſition of this verſe.
