Psalms 74:21 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 74:21

O let not the oppressed return ashamed
From the throne of grace, not having an answer of their prayer, but still continuing under the oppressions of their enemies:

let the poor and needy praise thy name;
let them have occasion for it, by the destruction of their enemies, and their deliverance from them, as they will have ere long; see ( Revelation 19:1 Revelation 19:2 ) .

20 Have respect unto the covenant; for the dark places of the earth are full of the habitations of violence.

21 O let not the oppressed return ashamed; the poor and destitute shall praise thy name.

22 Arise, O God, plead thine own cause; remember how the foolish man reproaches thee daily.
