SEV Biblia, Chapter 21:3
Por tanto le adelantarás en bendiciones de bien; corona de oro fino has puesto sobre su cabeza.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Psalms 20:3
Verse 3. Thou preventest him ] To prevent, from prcevenio, literally signifies to go before. Hence that prayer in the communion service of our public Liturgy, "Prevent us, O Lord, in all our doings, with thy most gracious favour!" That is, "Go before us in thy mercy, make our way plain, and enable us to perform what is right in thy sight!" And this sense of prevent is a literal version of the original word wnmdqt tekademennu. "For thou shalt go before him with the blessings of goodness." Our ancestors used God before in this sense. So in Henry V.'s speech to the French herald previously to the battle of Agincourt:- "Go therefore; tell thy master, here I am. My ransom is this frail and worthless trunk; My army, but a weak and sickly guard: Yet, God before, tell him we will come on, Though France himself, and such another neighbour, Stand in our way." A crown of pure gold - Probably alluding to the crown of the king of Rabbah, which, on the taking of the city, David took and put on his own head. See the. history, 2 Sam. xii. 26-30.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-6 - Happy the people whose king makes God's strength his confidence, an God's salvation his joy; who is pleased with all the advancements of God kingdom, and trusts God to support him in all he does for the service of it. All our blessings are blessings of goodness, and ar owing, not to any merit of ours, but only to God's goodness. But when God's blessings come sooner, and prove richer than we imagine; when they are given before we prayed for them, before we were ready for them, nay, when we feared the contrary; then it may be truly said tha he prevented, or went before us, with them. Nothing indeed prevented or went before Christ, but to mankind never was any favour mor preventing than our redemption by Christ. Thou hast made him to be universal, everlasting blessing to the world, in whom the families of the earth are, and shall be blessed; and so thou hast made his exceeding glad with the countenance thou hast given to his undertaking and to him in the prosecution of it. The Spirit of prophecy rises from what related to the king, to that which is peculiar to Christ; non other is blessed for ever, much less a blessing for ever.
