Psalms 144:11 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 144:11

Rid me, and deliver me from the hand of strange children
This is repeated from ( Psalms 144:7 Psalms 144:8 ) ; and is done to show the vehemency and importunity of the request, and the danger David was in, and his sense of it; (See Gill on Psalms 144:7); whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand [is] a right hand of
falsehood. (See Gill on Psalms 144:8).

Psalms 144:11 In-Context

10 You are the one who gives victory to kings. You are the one who snatches your servant David away from a deadly sword.

11 Snatch me, and rescue me from foreigners' hands. Their mouths speak lies. Their right hands take false pledges.

12 May our sons be like full-grown, young plants. May our daughters be like stately columns that adorn the corners of a palace.

13 May our barns be filled with all kinds of crops. May our sheep give birth to thousands of lambs, tens of thousands in our fields.
