Verse 4-8. If David had before been without the symbol of his royal dignity, namely, the diadem, he was the more justified in praising the goodness of God, which had now transferred it from the head of an enemy to his own. Augustus F. Tholuck.
Verse 6. Thou hast made him exceeding glad: literally, "brightened him," possibly in allusion to the brightness of Moses' face. Dalman Hapstone, M.A., in "The Ancient Psalms... A Literal Translation and Notes," etc., 1867.
Verse 6. Thou hast made him exceeding glad with thy countenance. Though this be metamorphically used for favour, yet is the speech not all metaphor, and that well experienced Christians will tell you. Zachary Bogan, in "The Mirth of a Christian Life," 1653.
Verse 6. (first clause). Literally, as in the Bible marginal translation, "Thou hast set him to be blessings for ever." Most truly said of the King in whom all the nations of the earth were to be blessed. Richard Mant.
