Compare all
10 aYou have broken1 Rahab in pieces, as one who is slain;
You have scattered Your enemies with Your mighty arm. 
11 aThe heavens are Yours, the earth also is Yours;
The world and all its fullness, You have founded them. 
12 The north and the south, You have created them;
aTabor and bHermon rejoice in Your name. 
13 You have a mighty arm;
Strong is Your hand, and high is Your right hand.
14 Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Your throne;
Mercy and truth go before Your face.

Psalms 89:12

rejoice in thy name—praise Thy perfections by their very existence.



Psalms 89:8-14

To illustrate His power and faithfulness examples are cited from history. His control of the sea (the most mighty and unstable object in nature), and of Egypt (Psalms 87:4), the first great foe of Israel (subjected to utter helplessness from pride and insolence), are specimens. At the same time, the whole frame of nature founded and sustained by Him, Tabor and Hermon for "east and west," and "north and south," together representing the whole world, declare the same truth as to His attributes.
