Psalm 9
1. David praises God for executing judgment
11. He incites others to praise him
13. He prays that he may have cause to praise him














(19) Let not man prevail.--Better, let not mere man be defiant.

Verse 19. - Arise, O Lord (comp. Psalm 7:6, and the comment ad loc.). Let not man prevail; or, let not weak man prevail. The word used for "man," enosh, carries with it the idea of weakness. That "weak man" should prevail over God is preposterous. Let the heathen be judged in thy sight. If judged, then, as being wicked, condemned; if condemned, then punished - defeated, ruined, brought to nought (see ver. 5)
