Psalm 59:16 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 59:16

But I will sing of thy power
In creating all things out of nothing; in upholding all things in being; in the redemption of his people; in their conversion and calling; in the preservation of them to eternal happiness; in the performance of his promises to them; in the destruction of their enemies; and in their protection:

yea, I will sing aloud of thy mercy in the morning;
of providential mercies, which are new every morning; and of special mercy in the heart of God, in the covenant of his grace, in redemption, in regeneration, in the pardon of sin, and in eternal life and salvation;

for thou hast been my defence; (See Gill on Psalms 59:9);

and refuge in the day of my trouble;
whither he fled, and found protection and safety; (See Gill on Psalms 9:9).

Psalm 59:16 In-Context

14 Ils reviennent chaque soir, ils hurlent comme des chiens, Ils font le tour de la ville.
15 Ils errent çà et lĂ , cherchant leur nourriture, Et ils passent la nuit sans ĂȘtre rassasiĂ©s.
16 Et moi, je chanterai ta force; DÚs le matin, je célébrerai ta bonté. Car tu es pour moi une haute retraite, Un refuge au jour de ma détresse.
17 O ma force! c'est toi que je célébrerai, Car Dieu, mon Dieu tout bon, est ma haute retraite.
