Psalms 37:13 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

The Lord shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming.

The Lord shall laugh at him - rather. 'The Lord laughs at him' (Psalms 2:4). "Laugh" implies the deep contrast there is between the lofty pretensions and seeming greatness of the wicked on the one hand, and their real impotence and speedy dissolution on the other. Man judges only by the present outward look of things.

For he seeth - namely, his day of destruction (Psalms 137:7; Ezekiel 7:7).
