Psalms 118:8 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 118:8

6 ^aThe Lord is on my side;
I will not fear.
What can man do to me?

7 ^aThe Lord is for me among those who help me;
Therefore ^bI shall see my desire on those who hate me.

8 ^aIt is better to trust in the Lord
Than to put confidence in man.

9 ^aIt is better to trust in the Lord
Than to put confidence in princes.

10 All nations surrounded me,
But in the name of the Lord I will destroy them.

11 They ^asurrounded me,
Yes, they surrounded me;
But in the name of the Lord I will destroy them.

12 They surrounded me ^alike bees;
They were quenched ^blike a fire of thorns;
For in the name of the Lord I will¹ destroy them.

13 You pushed me violently, that I might fall,
But the Lord helped me.

14 ^aThe Lord is my strength and song,
And He has become my salvation.
