Psalm 71:21

21 Aumenta tú mi grandeza, y vuelve a consolarme.

Psalm 71:21 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 71:21

Thou shalt increase my greatness
His temporal greatness, as he did, by crushing the rebellion of his son; returning him to his palace and family; and giving him rest from his enemies all around: and his spiritual greatness, by favouring him with his presence; by shedding abroad his love in his heart; by enlarging his experience; increasing his faith, causing his love to abound, and him to grow in every grace, and in the knowledge of Christ;

and comfort me on every side;
by his Spirit, word, and ordinances; by his truths and promises; with his rod and staff; and with mercy, grace, and lovingkindness. The phrase denotes the abundance of comfort, which should come as it were from every quarter, and encompass him about.

Psalm 71:21 In-Context

19 Porque tu justicia, oh Dios, alcanza hasta los cielos , tú que has hecho grandes cosas; oh Dios, ¿quién como tú?

20 Tú que me has hecho ver muchas angustias y aflicciones, me volverás a dar vida, y me levantarás de nuevo de las profundidades de la tierra.

21 Aumenta tú mi grandeza, y vuelve a consolarme.

22 Y yo te daré gracias con el arpa, cantaré tu verdad, Dios mío; a ti cantaré alabanzas con la lira, oh Santo de Israel.

23 Darán voces de júbilo mis labios, cuando te cante alabanzas, y mi alma, que tú has redimido.
