Sing unto God, ye kingdoms of the earth; O sing praises unto the Lord; Selah:
Ver. 32. Siny unto God, ye kingdoms] No such joy as that of the converted; Isaiah 35:10, "The ransomed of the Lord shall return, and come to Zion with songs, and everlasting joy upon their heads," &c. Bernard, for a certain time after his conversion, remained, as it were, deprived of his senses, by the excessive consolations he had from God. The like befell Cyprian, Austin, and others.
