Psalm 10:5

5 Todas sus empresas son siempre exitosas;tan altos y alejados de él están tus juiciosque se burla de todos sus enemigos.

Psalm 10:5 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 10:5

His ways are always grievous
To God and to his people; or, "his ways cause terror" ^F1, so Aben Ezra; make men fear; as antichrist has made the whole world tremble at him, ( Revelation 13:4 ) ; or, "his ways are defiled", as the Septuagint and Vulgate Latin render it; for to him is nothing pure, his mind and conscience being defiled, ( Titus 1:15 ) ; or, "his ways always remain" ^F2; they are always the same, there is no change in them for the better: or they "prosper" ^F3 as Jarchi interprets it; and this is sometimes stumbling to the saints, ( Jeremiah 12:1 ) ( Psalms 73:2 Psalms 73:3 ) ;

thy judgments [are] far above, out of his sight:
meaning either the laws, statutes, and commandments of God, which are not taken notice of by him; but his own decrees or orders are set in the room of them; or the examples of punishment inflicted on wicked men, as on the old world, on Sodom and Gomorrah, the Egyptians, and other nations; these are not regarded, when they should be a terror to him;

[as for] all his enemies, he puffeth at them;
who are the poor saints, and are looked upon by antichrist as feeble creatures, and all their efforts against him and his kingdom are treated with contempt: he blows upon them, and suggests that he can cause them to fall with the breath of his mouth, or strike them down with a straw or a feather; see ( Psalms 12:6 ) .

Psalm 10:5 In-Context

3 El malvado hace alarde de su propia codicia;alaba al ambicioso y menosprecia al SEÑOR.

4 El malvado levanta insolente la nariz,y no da lugar a Dios en sus pensamientos.

5 Todas sus empresas son siempre exitosas;tan altos y alejados de él están tus juiciosque se burla de todos sus enemigos.

6 Y se dice a sí mismo: «Nada me hará caer.Siempre seré feliz. Nunca tendré problemas».

7 Llena está su boca de maldiciones,de mentiras y amenazas;bajo su lengua esconde maldad y violencia.
