Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead? shall the dead arise [and] praise thee? Selah.
Ver. 10. Wilt thou show wonders to the dead?] Wilt thou delay to deliver me till I am dead, and then raise me again by a miracle, that I may praise thee? But he should have considered that God neither needeth our poor praises nor can his help ever come too late.
Shall the dead arise] Heb. the giants, that is, those that are swallowed up of death, as the giants were of the deluge.
