9 And all men shall fear, and shall declare the work of God; for they shall wisely consider of his doing.
9 All people will fear; they will proclaim the works of God and ponder what he has done.
9 Then all mankind fears; they tell what God has brought about and ponder what he has done.
9 Everyone sees it. God's work is the talk of the town.
9 All men shall fear, And shall declare the work of God; For they shall wisely consider His doing.
9 Then everyone will be afraid; they will proclaim the mighty acts of God and realize all the amazing things he does.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Psalm 64:9
Commentary on Psalm 64:7-10
(Read Psalm 64:7-10)
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.
