Psaume 71:23 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 71:23

My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing unto thee
Both with vocal and instrumental music; this is praising the Lord with joyful lips, ( Psalms 63:5 ) ;

and my soul, which thou hast redeemed;
signifying that it would not be lip labour, or bodily service, only that he should perform; but that his heart would go along with his lips in praise; and that under a sense of redeeming love, than which nothing can more strongly engage in such work, ( Psalms 103:1-3 ) . For the redemption of the soul is exceeding precious; being the contrivance of infinite wisdom, the fruit of divine grace, and owing to the blood and sacrifice of Christ.

Psaume 71:23 In-Context

21 Relève ma grandeur, Console-moi de nouveau!

22 Et je te louerai au son du luth, je chanterai ta fidélité, mon Dieu, Je te célébrerai avec la harpe, Saint d'Israël!

23 En te célébrant, j'aurai la joie sur les lèvres, La joie dans mon âme que tu as délivrée;

24 Ma langue chaque jour publiera ta justice, Car ceux qui cherchent ma perte sont honteux et confus.
