Because thou hast done it. — Better, because thou workest, i.e., for thy works, but spoken in anticipation of future manifestations.
I will wait on thy name.... — Better, I will wait for thy glory; “name,” here, after the mention of God’s works in the last clause, being evidently, as so often, synonymous with “fame” and “reputation.”
For it is good before thy saints. — This may mean that such a trustful expectation in the presence of the saints is good, or that it is pleasant in the eyes of the saints thus to wait, or we may take “name” as the subject.
The mention of the “saints” (chasîdîm) is by some supposed to indicate the Asmonean period as that of the composition of the Psalm.
