Psalm 64
Concise Complete
Prayer for deliverance. (1-6) The destruction of the wicked, encouragement
to the righteous. (7-10)
Verses 1-6 The
psalmist earnestly begs of God to preserve him from disquieting fear. The tongue
is a little member, but it boasts great things. The upright man is the mark at
which the wicked aim, they cannot speak peaceably either of him or to him. There
is no guard against a false tongue. It is bad to do wrong, but worse to
encourage ourselves and one another in it. It is a sign that the heart is
hardened to the greatest degree, when it is thus fully set to do evil. A
practical disbelief of God's knowledge of all things, is at the bottom of every
wickedness. The benefit of a good cause and a good conscience, appears most when
nothing can help a man against his enemies, save God alone, who is always a
present help.
Verses 7-10 When
God brings upon men the mischiefs they have desired on others, it is weight
enough to sink a man to the lowest hell. Those who love cursing, it shall come
upon them. Those who behold this shall understand, and observe God's hand in
all; unless we do so, we are not likely to profit by the dispensations of
Providence. The righteous shall be glad in the Lord; not glad of the misery and
ruin of their fellow-creatures, but glad that God is glorified, and his word
fulfilled, and the cause of injured innocence pleaded effectually. They rejoice
not in men, nor in themselves, nor in any creature, or creature enjoyments, nor
in their wisdom, strength, riches, or righteousness; but in Christ, in whom all
the seed of Israel are justified and glory, and in what he is to them, and has
done for them.
