Verse 6
6. Arise, O Lord, in thine anger From the judgment seat of Jehovah, before which he had just brought his cause, he hears the voice of acquittal, and now (Psalms 7:6-8) calls upon God to arise to immediate execution of the sentence upon his enemies, and the public vindication of his own righteousness.
Thou hast commanded Judgment had not only been given in the case, but a special order for its enforcement, and hence the urgency and confidence of this prayer of the persecuted, righteous man.
Hupfeld gives the construction: “Awake for me; thou hast ordained judgment.” The idea is the same as that above given.
