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

9 I will sing a new song to You, O God; On a harp of ten strings I will sing praises to You,
10 The One who gives salvation to kings, Who delivers David His servant From the deadly sword.
11 Rescue me and deliver me from the hand of foreigners, Whose mouth speaks lying words, And whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood--
12 That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; That our daughters may be as pillars, Sculptured in palace style;
13 That our barns may be full, Supplying all kinds of produce; That our sheep may bring forth thousands And ten thousands in our fields;
