Psalm 9:1-10:18 NASB

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Psalms 9:1-2

Psalms 9:1-2. I will praise thee with my whole heart With a sincere, affectionate, and devout heart. I will show forth all thy marvellous works I will discourse, in the general, of thy manifold wonders wrought for me, and for thy church and people formerly. The particle all is here, as it is often elsewhere, taken in a restrained sense. I will rejoice in thee In thy favour and help vouchsafed to me. read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Psalms 9:1-20

Psalms 9-10 God fights for the oppressedIn Psalms 9:0 and 10 we meet another kind of Hebrew verse, the acrostic. (Other acrostics are Psalms 25, 34, 37, 111, 112, 119 and 145.) In an acrostic the first word of each verse (or stanza) begins with a different letter of the 22-letter Hebrew alphabet, moving in order, so to speak, ‘from A to Z’. The acrostic in this case moves unbroken through Psalms 9:0 and 10, indicating that originally they probably formed one psalm. The absence of a heading to... read more

E.W. Bullinger's Companion Bible Notes - Psalms 9:1

Psalms 9:0 and Psalms 10:0 are linked together by an irregular Acrostic (see notes on pp. 721, 722, and App-63 ), beginning at Psalms 9:1 and ending with Psalms 10:18 . Seven letters are omitted. The Acrostic is irregular, corresponding with the "times of trouble". The notes will show how one subject pervades them (see H p. 721). Compare "the lawless one" (Psalms 9:5 , Psalms 9:16 and Psalms 10:2 , Psalms 10:4 , Psalms 10:13 , Psalms 10:15 ); "times of trouble" (Psalms 9:9 and Psalms 10:1 );... read more

PSALM 9THANKS FOR VICTORIES.(FOR THE CHIEF MUSICIAN; SET TO MUTH-LAB-BEN. A PSALM OF DAVID)The title here is from Halley.[1] However, there is some uncertainty about the exact meaning of this Psalm of David. The problem derives from two different translations of Psalms 9:3. Some have translated that verse as, "Because my enemies withdrew, etc."[2] This makes the Psalm a hymn of praise for many great victories already given by God to David, or Israel. Our version, along with the KJV, renders... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Psalms 9:1

Psalms 9:0. David praiseth God for executing of judgment: he inciteth others to praise him: he prayeth that he may have cause to praise him. To the chief musician upon Muth-labben. A Psalm of David. Title. Upon Muth-labben.— לבן מות על al muth labben. Upon the death of the champion. Thus also the Chaldee renders it: "To be sung on occasion of the death of the man who went forth from the camp." And accordingly many have supposed that the Psalm relates to that history of Goliath, which we have in... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Psalms 9:1-2

In view of the aspects of Yahweh’s character that he would yet describe, David said he would thank God wholeheartedly. He would announce His extraordinary works publicly, rejoice in Him, and sing the praises of the Most High. [Note: See VanGemeren’s excursus on Yahweh as El Elyon, the Most High, pp. 123-24.] read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Psalms 9:1-20

Psalms 9The Septuagint translators combined Psalms 9, 10 into one psalm, even though they are separate in the Hebrew text. Consequently, from this psalm through Psalms 147, the numbering of the psalms in the Roman Catholic versions of the Bible differs from the numbering in the Protestant versions. The Roman Catholic versions follow the Septuagint (Greek) and Vulgate (Latin) versions, whereas the Protestant versions follow the Hebrew Bible. Twice the Septuagint translators combined or... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 9:1-20

Psalms 9, 10 are combined in LXX, and there is certainly a real, though obscure, relationship between them. The two together form one ’acrostic,’ the vv. beginning with the successive letters of the Hebrew alphabet, though in both Pss. there is a gap in the arrangement. The subject matter of the two Pss., however, does not suggest that we have in tbem the two halves of what was originally a single Ps. Psalms 9 is distinctly national and Psalms 10 as distinctly personal, and though both may be... read more
