Stir up thyself and awake
 Who seemed to be asleep in the apprehensions of the psalmist, and to take no notice of his distresses, and the insults of his enemies; see ( Psalms 44:23 ) ; he adds, 
 to my judgment, [even] to my cause;
 that is, to plead it and maintain it, and avenge him of his enemies, as in ( Psalms 35:1 ) ; making use of his covenant interest in him as a plea for it to engage him to do it, saying, 
 my God, and my Lord;
 see ( Psalms 22:1 ) .
