诗篇 7:1-2 CUNPSS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Psalms 7:1-9

Shiggaion is a song or psalm (the word is used so only here and Hab. 3:1) --a wandering song (so some), the matter and composition of the several parts being different, but artificially put together?a charming song (so others), very delightful. David not only penned it, but sang it himself in a devout religious manner unto the Lord, concerning the words or affairs of Cush the Benjamite, that is, of Saul himself, whose barbarous usage of David bespoke him rather a Cushite, or Ethiopian, than a... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 7:1

O Lord my God, in thee do I put my trust ,.... The psalmist expresses his interest in God as his covenant God, and his trust and confidence in him; and with these he sets out as the stay of his soul, and his bulwark against the fears of his enemies; and he does not say that he had trusted in God, or would for the future trust in him; but that he did trust in him, and continued to do so. And God is to be trusted in at all times; in times of affliction, temptation, and desertion; and these the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 7:2

Lest he tear my soul like a lion ,.... That is, one of his persecutors, the chief of them; it may be Saul, whom the psalmist compares to a lion for his majesty and greatness, the lion being the king among beasts; and for his authority, power, and might, and for his wrath and cruelty, which he feared; and which, should it be exerted on him, would tear his soul, or himself, in pieces; would rend his soul from his body, and dispatch his life; see Proverbs 19:12 . So the Apostle Paul calls the... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 7:1

O Lord my God - אלהי יהוה Yehovah Elohai , words expressive of the strongest confidence the soul can have in the Supreme Being. Thou self-existent, incomprehensible, almighty, and eternal Being, who neither needest nor hatest any thing that thou hast made; thou art my God: God in covenant with thy creature man; and my God and portion particularly. Therefore, in thee do I put thy trust - I repose all my confidence in thee, and expect all my good from thee. Save me - Shield me from my... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 7:2

Lest he tear my soul like a lion - These words seem to answer well to Saul. As the lion is king in the forest; so was Saul king over the land. As the lion, in his fierceness, seizes at once, and tears his prey in pieces; so David expected to be seized and suddenly destroyed by Saul. He had already, in his rage, thrown his javelin at him, intending to have pierced him to the wall with it. As from the power of the lion no beast in the forest could deliver any thing; so David knew that Saul's... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 7:1

Verse 1 At the commencement of the psalm, David speaks of having many enemies, and in the second verse he specifies some one in the singular number. And certainly, since the minds of all men were inflamed against him, he had very good reason for praying to be delivered from all his persecutors. But as the wicked cruelty of the king, like a firebrand, had kindled against him, though an innocent person, the hatred of the whole people, he had good reason also for turning his pen particularly... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 7:1

O Lord my God, in thee do I put my trust (compare the openings of Psalms 11:1-7 ; Psalms 31:1-24 ; Psalms 71:1-24 .). When David is most sorely pressed by persecution and danger, then is his faith and trust in God mast plainly apparent. Save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me . The Revised Version has, "from all them that pursue me;" but "persecute" is better. Hengstenberg and Kay have, "from all my persecutors." So also French and Skinner. The persecutors are such... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 7:1

God the true Refuge of the soul. This psalm, like many others, refers to a time of trial. The key-note may, perhaps, be found in Psalms 7:1 , "In thee." When trouble comes we naturally look out from ourselves for help. Some lean upon friends; others cry for a favourable change of circumstances; while others again preach patience to themselves, in the hope that somehow deliverance will come. But only by trusting in God can we find real help; he is the Adullam, the true Refuge of the soul.... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 7:1-17

"Shiggaion" is connected by some with the "Shigioneth" of Habakkuk 3:1 , which is commonly explained to be a particular kind of tune or tunes. But the identity of the two words is uncertain, and the identity of their meaning, at an interval of nearly six centuries, is still more open to question. The meaning of "Shiggaion" has really to be guessed from the context; and the most probable of the conjectures made would seem to be, either simply, "a poem of David," or "a lyrical... read more

Spence, H. D. M., etc.

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 7:1-17

The slandered saint appealing to his God. £ There is nothing like the trials of life to constrain to prayer; and no prayers are so full of deep meaning as those forced out by such trials. There is no reason for doubting the Davidic authorship of this psalm. It well accords with some known episodes in his experience, and is just such an appeal to the great Judge of all the earth as he might be expected to make when unjustly accused; specially when accused of evil in the very direction... read more
