Psalms 52:9 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

I will praise thee for ever, because thou hast done it: and I will wait on thy name; for it is good before thy saints. I will praise thee for ever - Because I know that all my good comes from thee; therefore, will I ever praise thee for that good.

I will wait on thy name - I will expect all my blessings from the all-sufficient Jehovah, who is eternal and unchangeable.

It is good before thy saints - It is right that I should expect a continuation of thy blessings by uniting with thy saints in using thy ordinances. Thus I shall wait.
