“And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.”
They say, 'Appoint a wicked man over him; and let an accuser stand on his right hand.' The enemies' curse explicitly requests divine punishment: installation of a wicked ruler and an accuser. The 'right hand' position, typically associated with favor and protection, becomes the position of accusation and judgment. This verse indicates that the psalm records the enemies' imprecations against the speaker.
