Psalm 9:4

Listen to Psalm 9:4
4 Denn du führest mein Recht und meine Sache aus; du sitzest auf dem Stuhl, ein rechter Richter.

Psalm 9:4 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 9:4

For thou hast maintained my right and my cause
Or vindicated and established his righteous cause; God had pleaded and defended it, and by the flight, fall, and ruin of his enemies, had clearly made it appear that his cause was just and good;

thou sittest in the throne judging right;
God has not only a throne of grace on which he sits, and from whence he distributes grace and mercy to his people, but he has a throne of judgment, and which is prepared for it, as in ( Psalms 9:7 ) ; where he sits as the Judge of all the earth, and will do right; nor can he do otherwise, though his judgments are not always manifest in the present state of things; and the vindication of the psalmist's innocence and uprightness is another reason of his joy and gladness.

Psalm 9:4 In-Context

2 Ich freue mich und bin fröhlich in dir und lobe deinen Namen, du Allerhöchster,
3 daß du meine Feinde hinter sich getrieben hast; sie sind gefallen und umgekommen vor dir.
4 Denn du führest mein Recht und meine Sache aus; du sitzest auf dem Stuhl, ein rechter Richter.
5 Du schiltst die Heiden und bringst die Gottlosen um; ihren Namen vertilgst du immer und ewiglich.
6 Die Schwerter des Feindes haben ein Ende; die Städte hast du umgekehrt; ihr Gedächtnis ist umgekommen samt ihnen. {~}
