诗篇 60:11-12 RCUVSS

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 60:11

Give us help from trouble. Faith combats doubt, and, overcoming it, finds an utterance—"Give us help now , whatever thou hast done in the past." Our trouble is great. "Help us from it." For vain is the help of man. We have, therefore, no hope but in thee. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 60:12

Through God we shall do valiantly. No miracle is expected or asked for. Let God look upon us favourably—let his light shine into our hearts, and then "we ourselves shall do valiantly"—we shall gain the victory—we shall accomplish the prophecy of Balaam ( Numbers 24:18 ); and Edom shall pass into our possession. (For the fulfilment, see 2 Samuel 8:14 ; 1 Chronicles 18:13 .) For he it is that shall tread down our enemies (comp. Psalms 44:5 ), which has the same meaning, "Through thy... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Psalms 60:11

Give us help from trouble - From the troubles which have now come upon us and overwhelmed us.For vain is the help of man - Margin, salvation. The idea is, that they would look in vain to man to assist them in their present difficulties. They must depend on God alone. What is here said of temporal troubles is true as absolutely in the matter of salvation. When we are burdened with the consciousness of guilt, and trembling under the apprehension of the wrath to come, it is not man that can aid... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Psalms 60:12

Through God - By the help of God.We shall do valiantly - literally, we shall make strength. That is, we shall gain or gather strength; we shall go forth with spirit and with courage to the war. This expresses the confident assurance that they would secure the aid of God, and that under him they would achieve the victory.For he it is that shall tread down our enemies - He will himself tread or trample them down; that is, he will enable us to do it. The psalm, therefore, though begun in... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Psalms 60:11-12

Psalms 60:11-12. Give us help from trouble Do not frustrate these hopes, but afford us thy help against the Syrians also 2 Samuel 8:5, who now distress us; for vain is the help of man No human force is able to deliver us; nor have we any confidence in it, but in thee alone. Observe well, reader, then only are we qualified to receive help from God, when we are brought to own the insufficiency of all creatures to do that for us which we expect him to do. Through God we shall do valiantly ... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Psalms 60:1-12

Psalms 60:0 Psalm Victory over EdomIn the war outlined in 2 Samuel 8:3-14 (and dealt with in more detail in 2 Samuel 10:1-19) David fought on many fronts. The present psalm concerns Israel’s victory in a battle against Edom.

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Psalms 60:12

CONFIDENCE IN GOD"Through God we shall do valiantly;For he it is that will tread down our enemies."These glorying words of confidence do not belong immediately after a complaint that God had deserted their armies and had cast Israel off. To us this is more than sufficient reason for returning to the KJV for Psalms 60:10."No miracle is expected. Let God look upon us favorably; let his light shine into our hearts; and `With God, we shall do valiantly.'"[12]"He will tread down our enemies" (Psalms... read more
