8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you should go ; I will counsel you with My eye upon you. 9 Do not be as the horse or as the mule which have no understanding , Whose trappings include bit and bridle to hold them in check , Otherwise they will not come near to you. 10 Many are the sorrows of the wicked , But he who trusts in the Lord , lovingkindness shall surround him.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Psalm 32:8-10
Commentary on Psalm 32:8-11
(Read Psalm 32:8-11)
God teaches by his word, and guides with the secret intimations of his will. David gives a word of caution to sinners. The reason for this caution is, that the way of sin will certainly end in sorrow. Here is a word of comfort to saints. They may see that a life of communion with God is far the most pleasant and comfortable. Let us rejoice, O Lord Jesus, in thee, and in thy salvation; so shall we rejoice indeed.
