Psalm 57
57:1 «
a
To the chief Musician, Altaschith, Michtam of David, when he fled from Saul in
the cave.» Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul
trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge, until
[these]
a calamities be overpast.
(
a) This was either the beginning of a certain
song, or the words which David uttered when he stayed his affection.
(
b) He compares the afflictions which God lays on
his children, to a storm that comes and goes.
57:2 I will cry unto God most high; unto God that
c
performeth [all things] for me.
(
c) Who does not leave his works begun
imperfectly.
57:3 He shall send from
d
heaven, and save me [from] the reproach of him that would swallow me up. Selah.
God shall send forth his mercy and his truth.
(
d) He would rather deliver me by a miracle, than
that I should be overcome.
57:4 My soul [is] among lions: [and] I lie [even
among] them that are set on fire, [even] the sons of men, whose teeth [are]
e
spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.
(
e) He means their slanderous and false reports.
57:5 f Be
thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; [let] thy glory [be] above all the
earth.
(
f) Do not permit me to be destroyed to the
contempt of your Name.
57:6 They have prepared a net for my steps;
g
my soul is bowed down: they have digged a pit before me, into the midst whereof
they are fallen [themselves]. Selah.
(
g) For fear, seeing the great dangers on all
sides.
57:7 My heart is
h
fixed, O God, my heart is fixed:
i I
will sing and give praise.
(
h) That is, wholly bent to give you praise for
my deliverance.
(
i) He shows that both his heart will praise God,
and his tongue will confess him, and also he will use other means to provoke
himself forward to the same.
57:10 For
thy mercy [is] great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the
k
clouds.
(
k) Your mercies not only belong to the Jews, but
also to the Gentiles.
