They — The magistrates of whom this psalm treats. Know not — The duty of their place. Nor will — Their ignorance is wilful. Walk on — They persist: it is their constant course. In darkness — In their sinful courses. The foundations — This corruption of the supreme rulers, flows from them to their inferior officers and members.
