Context of Psalms 59:10
8But Lord, you laugh at them. You laugh at all the foreign nations. 9I will wait for you to help me, because you are the one who gives me strength. You, God, are the strong place where I will be safe. Yes God, you love me with a faithful love, and you will come to help me. God will let me see that he has won against my enemies. 11Do not kill them yet, or my people will soon forget. Use your power to send them away without homes. Then make them fall! You are our Lord who keeps us safe like a soldier's shield. 12They speak bad words that are evil. Let their own pride catch them in a trap, because they curse people, and they tell lies.

- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 10The God of my mercy shall prevent me - Or rather, “My God - his mercy shall prevent me.” This is in accordance with the present reading of the Hebrew text, and is probably correct.
