Psalm 18:39 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 18:39

For thou hast girded me with strength unto battle
See ( Psalms 18:32 ) ; that natural strength, courage and valour, which David had, were from the Lord; and so is the Spirit of power, love, and of a sound mind, which believers have; and likewise that strength which Christ, as man, had and used in his combat with the powers of darkness; see ( Psalms 80:17 ) ;

thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me;
as the psalmist ascribes his strength, so he attributes his success to the Lord; who likewise subdues the sins of his people, and all other enemies of theirs, and who also makes the enemies of his Son his footstool, ( Psalms 110:1 ) .

Psalm 18:39 In-Context

37 Meinen Feinden jagte ich nach und erreichte sie, und ich kehrte nicht um, bis sie aufgerieben waren.
38 Ich zerschmetterte sie, und sie vermochten nicht aufzustehen; sie fielen unter meine Füße.
39 Und du umgürtetest mich mit Kraft zum Streite, beugtest unter mich, die wider mich aufstanden.
40 Und du hast mir gegeben den Rücken meiner Feinde; und meine Hasser, ich vernichtete sie.
41 Sie schrieen, und kein Retter war da zu Jehova, und er antwortete ihnen nicht.
