Psalms 141:10

Ver. 10. Let the wicked fall into their own nets,.... Which they have laid for others, as they very often do; see Ps 7:15; or "into his net" {k}, either Saul into his own net, and others with him, so Kimchi and Ben Melech; or the wicked into the net which God has laid for them; see Eze 12:13;

whilst that I withal escape; or "whilst I together escape", or "pass over" {l}; that is, while he, together with his companions, passed over the net laid; or,

"till I pass over safe and sound,''

will all mine, as Noldius {m}; not only pass over and escape the snares of the wicked, but pass out of this world into a state of happiness and glory in another.
