Salmos 28:6

6 Bendito seja o Senhor, porque ouviu a voz das minhas súplicas.

Salmos 28:6 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 28:6

Blessed [be] the Lord
Which must be understood, not as invoking nor as conferring a blessing on him, neither of which can be done by a creature; nor does he stand in need of any, he being Elshaddai, God all sufficient, God over all, blessed for ever; but as ascribing all blessedness to him, congratulating his greatness and happiness, and giving him praise and glory for mercies received; and particularly for the following:

because he hath heard the voice of my supplications;
what he had prayed for, ( Psalms 28:2 ) ; an answer was quickly returned, even while he was speaking, ( Isaiah 65:24 ) ; though this may be an expression of faith, being fully persuaded and assured that he was heard, and would be answered, and may be said by a prophetic spirit; knowing that what he had humbly asked for would be granted; so Aben Ezra and Kimchi understand it in a way of prophecy.

Salmos 28:6 In-Context

4 Retribui-lhes segundo as suas obras e segundo a malícia dos seus feitos; dá-lhes conforme o que fizeram as suas mãos; retribui-lhes o que eles merecem.
5 Porquanto eles não atentam para as obras do Senhor, nem para o que as suas mãos têm feito, ele os derrubará e não os reedificará
6 Bendito seja o Senhor, porque ouviu a voz das minhas súplicas.
7 O Senhor é a minha força e o meu escudo; nele confiou o meu coração, e fui socorrido; pelo que o meu coração salta de prazer, e com o meu cântico o louvarei.
8 O Senhor é a força do seu povo; ele é a fortaleza salvadora para o seu ungido.
