Psalms 56:6

They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps, when they wait for my soul.

Ver. 6. They gather themselves together] They convene and combine to do me mischief; and should not God's people meet often together to counterplot such malignants, and to pray them down? Cum bent, cum probi coeunt, cum pii, cum casti congregantur, non est factio dicenda, sed curia: Et e contrario, illis nomen factionis accommodandum est, qui in odium bonorum et proborum conspirant, saith Tertullian (Apol. advers. Gentes, cap. 39, num 520).

They mark my steps] They spy and pry into my practices, that they may take any advantage; this calls for careful and exact walking, 1Pe 2:21 Hebrews 12:13 .
