Psalms 129:8 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

These expressions are delivered in the. Spirit of prophecy; as if The sacred Writer had said, such will be the sure consequence of all Zion's foes; they must perish forever. And to which every true follower of the Lord Jesus cannot but say Amen. So spake Deborah in that divine song; So let all thine enemies perish, O Lord: but let them that love him be as the sun when he goeth forth in his might, Judges 5:31.

Psalms 129:5-8

5 Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion.

6 Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withereth afore it groweth up:

7 Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand; nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom.

8 Neither do they which go by say, The blessing of the LORD be upon you: we bless you in the name of the LORD.
