Bible Commentaries
Wesley's Explanatory Notes
Psalms 57
Send forth - Will discover them, by affording his gracious help in pursuance of his promises.
Lions - Fierce and bloody men. I lie - I have my abode. On fire - From hell. Who are mere fire - brands, breathing out wrath and threatenings, and incensing Saul against me.
Excited - Glorify thy power, and goodness, and justice, and faithfulness, by my deliverance. Above, &c. - To the highest degree possible.
My glory - My tongue, the instrument of singing. Awake - I will employ all the powers of my soul and body.
The people - Among the Israelites, and among the Heathens, as I shall have occasion.
