Adam Clarke's Bible Commentary Verse 7. But God shall shoot at them with an arrow ] They endeavour to trace me out, that they may shoot me; but God will shoot at them. This, if the Psalm refer to the times of David, seems to be prophetic of Saul's death. The archers pressed upon him, and sorely wounded him with their arrows. 1 Sam. xxxi. 3.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 7-10 - When God brings upon men the mischiefs they have desired on others, it is weight enough to sink a man to the lowest hell. Those who love cursing, it shall come upon them. Those who behold this shal understand, and observe God's hand in all; unless we do so, we are no likely to profit by the dispensations of Providence. The righteou shall be glad in the Lord; not glad of the misery and ruin of their fellow-creatures, but glad that God is glorified, and his wor fulfilled, and the cause of injured innocence pleaded effectually. The rejoice not in men, nor in themselves, nor in any creature, or creatur enjoyments, nor in their wisdom, strength, riches, or righteousness but in Christ, in whom all the seed of Israel are justified and glory and in what he is to them, and has done for them _________________________________________________
