Psalms 21:13 - John Trapp Complete Commentary

Bible Comments

Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength: [so] will we sing and praise thy power.

Ver. 13. Be thou exalted, Lord, in thine own strength] Finit Psalmum cum laude, sicut incepit, saith Aben Ezra. He closeth up the psalm, as he began it, with praise and prayer that God would arise and destroy the rest, as he had already done some of their enemies. God's power and strength is in itself infinite, and cannot be exalted or amplified; but in respect of us it is said to be exalted when exerted and put forth for the defence of his people.

So will we sing and praise thy power] This they restipulate; as knowing that it would please the Lord better than an ox or bullock that hath horns and hoofs, Psalms 69:31 .
