Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Psalms 7:10-17

David having lodged his appeal with God by prayer and a solemn profession of his integrity, in the former part of the psalm, in this latter part does, as it were, take out judgment upon the appeal, by faith in the word of God, and the assurance it gives of the happiness and safety of the righteous and the certain destruction of wicked people that continue impenitent. I. David is confident that he shall find God his powerful protector and Saviour, and the patron of his oppressed innocency (Ps.... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 7:12

If he turn not ,.... Not God, but the enemy, or the wicked man, spoken of Psalm 7:5 ; if he turn not from his wicked course of life, to the Lord to live to him, and according to his will; unless he is converted and repents of his sin, and there is a change wrought in him, in his heart and life; the Septuagint, Vulgate Latin, Arabic, and Ethiopic versions read, "if ye turn not", or "are not converted", an apostrophe to the wicked; he will whet his sword : God is a man of war, and he is... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 7:13

He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death ,.... The weapons of his indignation, Isaiah 13:5 ; which, will issue both in the first and second death, corporeal and eternal; the instruments of the former are diseases of various kinds, and judgments, as famine, pestilence, &c.; and of the latter not only the law is an instrument of it, that being the letter which kills, and is the ministration of condemnation and death, but even the Gospel itself to wicked men is the savour of... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 7:14

Behold, he travaileth with iniquity ,.... Is full of it, and big with it, as a woman with child, and eagerly desires to bring it forth, and is in pain till he commits it; and hath conceived mischief ; that which is injurious to God and the perfections of his nature, a transgression of his law, and an affront to his justice and holiness, is doing wrong to fellow creatures, and harm to themselves, either to their name and credit, or to their substance and estates, or to their bodies and... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 7:15

He made a pit and digged it ,.... That is, he digged a pit, and made it very large and capacious, to answer his purposes; and is fallen into the ditch which he made ; so it is said of the Heathen, Psalm 9:15 ; and is exemplified in the case of Haman, who was hanged upon the gallows he had built for Mordecai. Kimchi explains this of Saul's falling upon his own sword, and dying by it, which he drew against David; phrase is proverbial, Proverbs 26:27 ; the sense of this and the above... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 7:16

His mischief shall return upon his own head ,.... That which he conceived and devised in his mind, and attempted to bring upon others, shall fall upon himself, as a just judgment from heaven upon him; and his violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate ; referring to the violence with which Saul pursued David, which would be requited to him, and of which he prophesied, 1 Samuel 26:10 . read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 7:12

If he turn not - This clause the Syriac adds to the preceding verse. Most of the versions read, "If ye return not." Some contend, and not without a great show of probability, that the two verses should be read in connection, thus: "God is a just Judge; a God who is provoked every day. If (the sinner) turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready." This, no doubt, gives the sense of both. read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 7:13

He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death - This appears to be all a prophecy of the tragical death of Saul. He was wounded by the arrows of the Philistines; and his own keen sword, on which he fell, terminated his woful days! read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 7:14

He travaileth with iniquity - All these terms show the pitch of envy, wrath, and malevolence, to which Saul had carried his opposition against David. He conceived mischief; he travailed with iniquity; he brought forth falsehood - all his expectations were blasted. read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 7:15

He made a pit - He determined the destruction of David. He laid his plans with much artifice; he executed them with zeal and diligence; and when he had, as he supposed, the grave of David digged, he fell into it himself! The metaphor is taken from pits dug in the earth, and slightly covered over with reeds &c.; so as not to be discerned from the solid ground; but the animal steps on them, the surface breaks, and he falls into the pit and is taken. "All the world agrees to acknowledge the... read more
