Psalms 44:4-8 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

What an unanswerable appeal this is for success in player! If God be our king, will he not help and defend his own subjects? And, if we use the same argument in a gospel sense; if Jesus be our Redeemer and hath bought us with his blood, will he not have an eye to his own property? What a charming encouragement the apostle took from hence. Who delivered us (saith he) from so great a death, and doth deliver, in whom we trust he will yet deliver. 2 Corinthians 1:10.

Psalms 44:4-8

4 Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob.

5 Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us.

6 For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.

7 But thou hast saved us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame that hated us.

8 In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever. Selah.
