And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD.
And now - "And now" - i:e., seeing that it is so-seeing that I am safe under the hiding of God (Psalms 27:5; Psalms 3:3).
Sacrifices of joy - jubilee offerings accompanied with shoutings of joy for deliverance х tªruw`aah (H8643)] (Numbers 23:21) - literally, 'sacrifices of shouting;' or else, 'of the clang' of trumpets; alluding to the sounding of the trumpets over the burnt offerings and peace offerings in the solemn days of gladness (Numbers 10:10; Psalms 81:3; Psalms 89:16). If there be reference to the custom here, David must be speaking not merely as an individual, but as the representative of Israel. For the trumpets were not used at private offerings. At the public thank offerings the music was accompanied with joyous shoutings, "Hosanna!"
