Psaume 28:6 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 28:6

Blessed [be] the Lord
Which must be understood, not as invoking nor as conferring a blessing on him, neither of which can be done by a creature; nor does he stand in need of any, he being Elshaddai, God all sufficient, God over all, blessed for ever; but as ascribing all blessedness to him, congratulating his greatness and happiness, and giving him praise and glory for mercies received; and particularly for the following:

because he hath heard the voice of my supplications;
what he had prayed for, ( Psalms 28:2 ) ; an answer was quickly returned, even while he was speaking, ( Isaiah 65:24 ) ; though this may be an expression of faith, being fully persuaded and assured that he was heard, and would be answered, and may be said by a prophetic spirit; knowing that what he had humbly asked for would be granted; so Aben Ezra and Kimchi understand it in a way of prophecy.

Psaume 28:6 In-Context

4 Rends-leur selon leurs oeuvres et selon la malice de leurs actions, Rends-leur selon l'ouvrage de leurs mains; Donne-leur le salaire qu'ils méritent.

5 Car ils ne sont pas attentifs aux oeuvres de l'Eternel, A l'ouvrage de ses mains. Qu'il les renverse et ne les relève point!

6 Béni soit l'Eternel! Car il exauce la voix de mes supplications.

7 L'Eternel est ma force et mon bouclier; En lui mon coeur se confie, et je suis secouru; J'ai de l'allégresse dans le coeur, Et je le loue par mes chants.

8 L'Eternel est la force de son peuple, Il est le rocher des délivrances de son oint.
