He prays for sincerity I hate them with perfect hatred The phrase "I hate them with perfect hatred" is a strong expression of the psalmist's complete and unwavering opposition to those who are enemies of God. The Hebrew word for "hate" here is "שָׂנֵא" (sane), which conveys a deep-seated aversion or enmity. In the context of the psalm, this hatred is not a personal vendetta but a reflection of the psalmist's alignment with God's righteousness and justice. The term "perfect" in Hebrew is "תַּכְלִית" (takhlit), suggesting completeness or fullness. This indicates that the psalmist's hatred is not impulsive or partial but is a fully developed stance against evil, aligning with God's own perspective on sin and unrighteousness. Historically, this reflects the ancient Israelite understanding of loyalty to God, where allegiance to Yahweh necessitated a rejection of His adversaries.
