4 The King is mighty, he loves justice- you have established equity; in Jacob you have done what is just and right.
4 The king's strength also loveth judgment; thou dost establish equity, thou executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob.
4 The King in his might loves justice.
4 Strong King, lover of justice, You laid things out fair and square; You set down the foundations in Jacob, Foundation stones of just and right ways.
4 The King's strength also loves justice; You have established equity; You have executed justice and righteousness in Jacob.
4 Mighty King, lover of justice, you have established fairness. You have acted with justice and righteousness throughout Israel.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Psalm 99:4
Commentary on Psalm 99:1-5
(Read Psalm 99:1-5)
God governs the world by his providence, governs the church by his grace, and both by his Son. The inhabitants of the earth have cause to tremble, but the Redeemer still waits to be gracious. Let all who hear, take warning, and seek his mercy. The more we humble ourselves before God, the more we exalt him; and let us be thus reverent, for he is holy.
