The psalmist appeals to God to judge him according to his righteousness and not allow the enemies to rejoice over him. The reference to 'righteousness' suggests that the psalmist is confident that his cause is just and that divine examination will confirm his innocence. The request that enemies not rejoice emphasizes the psalmist's desire that vindication would involve not merely his exoneration but the visible defeat and humiliation of those who wrongly opposed him.
