Psalms 32:8-11 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

All these expressions, if accepted in reference to what went before, are to the same effect, and directed to the same purpose. God will guide his people with his counsel, and compass them about with mercy. So that there is always cause for the children of God to triumph; while sinners, unreclaimed, and who refuse divine teachings, will find cause for continual sorrow.

Psalms 32:8-11

8 I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guidea thee with mine eye.

9 Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest they come near unto thee.

10 Many sorrows shall be to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the LORD, mercy shall compass him about.

11 Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.
