15 Shouts of joy and victory resound in the tents of the righteous: "The Lord's right hand has done mighty things!
15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tabernacles of the righteous: the right hand of the Lord doeth valiantly.
15 Glad songs of salvation are in the tents of the righteous: "The right hand of the Lord does valiantly,
15 Hear the shouts, hear the triumph songs in the camp of the saved? "The hand of God has turned the tide!
15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation Is in the tents of the righteous; The right hand of the Lord does valiantly.
15 Songs of joy and victory are sung in the camp of the godly. The strong right arm of the Lord has done glorious things!
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Psalm 118:15
Commentary on Psalm 118:1-18
(Read Psalm 118:1-18)
The account the psalmist here gives of his troubles is very applicable to Christ: many hated him without a cause; nay, the Lord himself chastened him sorely, bruised him, and put him to grief, that by his stripes we might be healed. God is sometimes the strength of his people, when he is not their song; they have spiritual supports, though they want spiritual delights. Whether the believer traces back his comfort to the everlasting goodness and mercy of God, or whether he looks forward to the blessing secured to him, he will find abundant cause for joy and praise. Every answer to our prayers is an evidence that the Lord is on our side; and then we need not fear what man can do unto us; we should conscientiously do our duty to all, and trust in him alone to accept and bless us. Let us seek to live to declare the works of God, and to encourage others to serve him and trust in him. Such were the triumphs of the Son of David, in the assurance that the good pleasure of the Lord should prosper in his hand.
