G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Psalms 9:1-20

The burden of this psalm is thanksgiving for Jehovah's righteous rule by which He has overcome the enemies of the chosen people. It is almost exclusively a song of thanksgiving. There are a few brief petitions, but they are intimately related to the measures of praise. These songs of praise move from the personal to the general. First, deliverances wrought for the singer are celebrated (1-4) ; then the government of the enthroned Jehovah among the nations, a government based on righteousness,... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 9:19

‘ Arise, O YHWH; Do not let man prevail: Let the nations be judged in your sight. Put them in fear, O YHWH: Let the nations know themselves to be but men. Selah. The Psalm finishes with a cry to YHWH to bring about these purposes, and deal with the unrighteous nations. Let YHWH arise and prevent man from prevailing, for he is unrighteous and will behave unrighteously. Let Him judge them in accordance with their deserving, as known by the all-seeing eye. Indeed let Him put them in fear and make... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 9:1-20

9 and 10. Yahweh the Refuge of His People.— These two Pss., divided in MT, were originally one, This is proved by the fact that they are one in LXX. and Vulg., by the absence of title over Psalms 10, and, conclusively, by the evidence that 9 and 10 form one acrostic poem. It was arranged in strophes of four lines each, the first letter of each strophe being one of the letters of the Heb. alphabet in regular succession. This system is carried out in the whole of Psalms 9-2 in Psalms 10. So far... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Psalms 9:1-20

INTRODUCTION“A psalm of thanksgiving (Psalms 9:1-2) after a victory (Psalms 9:3) over the heathen wrought by Divine judgment (Psalms 9:4-6), expressing confidence in His constant protection of the oppressed (Psalms 9:7-10); therefore the pious have to thank God (Psalms 9:11-12), and pray to Him in every time of need (Psalms 9:13-14). The judicial government of God causes the enemies finally to perish, and saves the sufferers (Psalms 9:15-18); therefore the prayer (Psalms 9:19-20), which shows... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Psalms 9:1-20

Psalms 9:1-20 The ninth psalm is to the chief musician on Muthlabben. Muthlabben is the death of a son. This could have been when Bathsheba's first son died.I will praise thee, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will show forth all thy marvelous works.

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Psalms 9:1-20

Psalms 9:5 . Thou hast rebuked the heathen. A song in ancient time was made after every victory, a sort of Te Deum, to be sung in the congregation. The collection of those hallowed martial odes was called the Book of the wars of the Lord. The rabbins say that this psalm was composed after the fall of Goliath, and the defeat of the Philistines. They, and the Ammonites, had shed innocent blood. Psalms 9:12 . When he maketh inquisition for blood. The Ammonites, on the breaking out of the... read more

Psalms 9:13-20Consider my trouble.A note of trouble in a triumph PsalmThe second part of the Psalm begins with Psalms 9:13. The prayer in that verse is the only trace of trouble in the Psalm. The rest is triumph and exaltation. This, at first discordant, note has sorely exercised commentators; and the violent solution that the whole of the Cheth stanza (verses 13, 14) should be regarded as “the cry of the meek,” quoted by the Psalmist, and therefore be put in inverted commas (though adopted by... read more
