Charles Ellicott Commentary Psalms 5:10

"Hold them guilty, O God; Let them fall by their own counsels; Thrust them out in the multitude of their transgressions; For they have rebelled against thee." — Psalms 5:10 (ASV)

Destroy. —Literally, make or count guilty.

Transgressions. —Literally, revolts, thus being in close synonymous parallelism with the next clause. Or else, as in margin and in ancient versions, Septuagint, Vulgate, and Syriac, Let them fall from their counsels: i.e., let their plots fail.
