Salmos 107:40

40 el Señor
derrama desprecio sobre sus príncipes
y los hace vagar por tierras baldías y sin sendero.

Salmos 107:40 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 107:40

He poureth contempt upon princes
That is, the Lord does, who is above them; he laughs at them, and has them in derision, when they are raging against his people, cause, and interest; he sets them up and pulls them down at his pleasure; he hurls them from their seats and thrones, and makes them contemptible to their subjects; he sometimes brings them to a shameful end, as Herod, who was eaten with worms; and wicked princes, if they are not brought to disgrace in this world, they will rise to shame and everlasting contempt in the other; and will stand with the meanest and lowest before the Judge of the whole earth; and seek to the rocks and mountains to cover them from his wrath. This particularly will be true of the antichristian princes, when the vials of God's wrath will be poured out upon them, ( Revelation 16:1 ) .

And causeth them to wander in the wilderness; where there is no way;
no beaten track or path; whither being driven out of their kingdoms, they flee for shelter, and wander about in untrodden paths; as Nebuchadnezzar, when he was driven from men, and had his dwelling with the beasts of the field: or this may be interpreted, as it is by Aben Ezra and Kimchi, the infatuation of their wisdom, and of their being left without counsel, and erring through it; being at their wits' end, not knowing what step to take, or measures to concert; being in a maze, in a wilderness, at an entire loss what they should do; see ( Job 12:17-21 ) .

Salmos 107:40 In-Context

38 ¡Cuánto los bendice!
Allí crían familias numerosas
y sus manadas de animales aumentan.
39 Cuando disminuye la cantidad de ellos y se empobrecen
por la opresión, las dificultades y el dolor,
40 el Señor
derrama desprecio sobre sus príncipes
y los hace vagar por tierras baldías y sin sendero.
41 Pero rescata de la dificultad a los pobres
y hace crecer a sus familias como rebaños de ovejas.
42 Los justos verán estas cosas y se alegrarán
mientras los perversos son bruscamente silenciados.
