“If I have rewarded evil unto him that was at peace with me; (yea, I have delivered him that without cause is mine enemy:)”
Psalms 7:4 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 7:4
David continues his oath of innocence, specifically denying returning evil for good and affirming he spared his enemy. The parenthetical statement 'I have delivered him that without cause is mine enemy' likely refers to David sparing Saul's life (1 Samuel 24, 26). This demonstrates Christ-like love of enemies and refusal to take personal vengeance. Romans 12:17-21 commands the same principle. David's restraint when he had power to destroy his enemy proved his righteousness and foreshadowed Christ's refusal to call down legions of angels.
