I will praise the Lord according to his
righteousness
Or on account of it, as it was displayed in vindicating the
innocent, and punishing the wicked; so Pharaoh having ordered
male infants of the Hebrews to be drowned, and he himself and his
host in righteous judgment being drowned in the Red sea; Moses
and the children of Israel sung a song, as the psalmist here;
and will sing praise to the name of the Lord most
high;
whose name is Jehovah, and is the most High over all the earth;
and who had now, according to the psalmist's request, ( Psalms 7:6 Psalms 7:7 ) ; arose and
lifted up himself, and returned on high, and had shown himself to
be above all David's enemies, and had sat on the throne judging
right.
