CHAP. XXI.
1 A thankesgiuing for victory. 7 Confidence of further successe.
2 Thou hast giuen him his hearts desire; and hast not withholden the request of his lips. Selah.
4 He asked life of thee, and thou gauest it him, euen length of dayes for euer and euer.
5 His glory is great in thy saluation: honour and Maiestie hast thou layde vpon him.
6 For thou hast made him most blessed for euer: thou hast made him exceeding glad with thy countenance.6
7 For the King trusteth in the Lord, and through the mercy of the most High, he shall not be moued.
8 Thine hand shall finde out all thine enemies, thy right hand shal finde out those that hate thee.
10 Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.
12 Therefore shalt thou make them turne their back, when thou shalt make ready thine arrowes vpon thy strings, against the face of them.12
13 Be thou exalted, Lord, in thine owne strength: so will wee sing, aud praise thy power.
View Wesley's Notes for Psalms Chapter 21
21:3 Prevent - Crowning him with manifold blessings, both more and sooner than he expected. With - With excellent blessings.
21:4 For ever - Thou gavest him a long life and reign here, and after that didst translate him to live with thee for ever. But this was more eminently fulfilled in Christ, who asked of his father, life, or to be saved from death, #Heb 5:7|, though with submission to his will: but his father, though he saw it necessary to take away his temporal life, yet instantly gave him another, far more noble, even the perfect possession of an everlasting life both in his soul and body, at his right hand.
21:5 Glory - His fame or renown. Salvation - By reason of those great and glorious deliverances which thou hast wrought both for him, and by him.
21:6 Countenance - Smiling upon him, by thy grace and favour.
21:9 Oven - Like wood, which when it is cast in there, is quickly consumed.
21:10 Fruit - Their children. God will take away both root and branch, the parents and all that wicked race.
21:11 Thee - Against God, not directly, but by consequence, because it was against David, whom God had anointed, and against the Lord's people, whose injuries God takes as done to himself.
21:13 Exalted - By thy own power, or by the manifestation thereof.
