Psaume 71:22 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 71:22

I will also praise thee with the psaltery
An instrument of music; (See Gill on Psalms 33:2);

[even] thy truth, O my God;
that is, his faithfulness in fulfilling his promises, which is never suffered to fail;

unto thee will I sing with the harp;
another instrument of music; and both typical of the spiritual melody in the heart, which believers make in praising the Lord, when they sing the Lamb's new song; see ( Revelation 14:2 Revelation 14:3 ) ;

O thou Holy One of Israel;
the God of Israel, that dwells among them, and sanctifies them; and who is essentially and perfectly holy in himself, and in all his ways and works; the remembrance of which occasions praise and thankfulness, ( Psalms 97:12 ) .

Psaume 71:22 In-Context

20 Toi qui, m'ayant fait voir plusieurs détresses et plusieurs maux, reviens me rendre la vie, et qui me fais remonter hors des abîmes de la terre.
21 Tu accroîtras ma grandeur, et tu me consoleras encore.
22 Aussi je te louerai sur l'instrument du luth, pour ta fidélité, ô mon Dieu! Je te psalmodierai sur la harpe, ô Saint d'Israël!
23 Mes lèvres, et mon âme que tu as rachetée, chanteront de joie quand je te psalmodierai.
24 Ma langue aussi chaque jour redira ta justice; car ceux qui cherchent mon mal seront honteux et rougiront.
