'Opponents' in the Bible

Do give heed to me, O Lord,And listen to what my opponents are saying!

As He said this, all His opponents were being humiliated; and the entire crowd was rejoicing over all the glorious things being done by Him.

for I will give you utterance and wisdom which none of your opponents will be able to resist or refute.

in no way alarmed by your opponents—which is a sign of destruction for them, but of salvation for you, and that too, from God.
