From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy -The prophet still more makes himself one with the people, not only as looking for God, but in penitence, as Daniel bewails “his own sins and the sins of his people”Daniel 9:10. The “enemy” is Babylon and “Edom”Obadiah 1:10,Obadiah 1:12;Psalms 137:7; and then, in all times, (since this was written for all times, and the relations of the people of God and of its enemies are the same,) whosoever, whether devils or evil men, rejoice over the falls of God’s people. “Rejoice not”; for thou hast no real cause; “the triumphing of the ungodly”, and the fall of the godly, “is but for a moment.
