Psalm 70:4 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 70:4

Let all those that seek thee
The Targum is,

``that seek doctrine (or instruction) from thee.''

rejoice and be glad in thee;
the Targum paraphrases it,

``rejoice and be glad in thy word.''

and let such as love thy salvation say continually, let God be
magnified;
the Targum is,

``let the glory of the Lord be increased;''

and in ( Psalms 40:16 ) , instead of "God", it is "the Lord", or "Jehovah": (See Gill on Psalms 40:16).

2 Those who are out to get me - let them fall all over themselves. Those who relish my downfall - send them down a blind alley.
3 Give them a taste of their own medicine, those gossips off clucking their tongues.
4 Let those on the hunt for you sing and celebrate. Let all who love your saving way say over and over, "God is mighty!"
5 But I've lost it. I'm wasted. God - quickly, quickly! Quick to my side, quick to my rescue! God, don't lose a minute.
