Psalms 33:11

“Rid me, and deliver me from the hand of strange children, etc.] This is repeated from (<19E407>Psalm 144:7,8); 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 “<19E407>Psalm 144:7”); whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand [is] a right hand of falsehood. (See Gill on “<19E408>Psalm 144:8”).”

“The counsel of the Lord - The purpose of the Lord. Standeth for ever - It will be carried out. It will never be changed. There can be no “superior” counsel or will to change it, as is the case with the plans of men; and no purposes of any beings “inferior” to himself - angels, men, or devils - can affect, defeat, or modify his eternal plans. No changes in human affairs can impede his plans; no opposition can defeat them; no progress can supersede them. The thoughts of his heart - The things which he has “designed,” or which he intends shall be accomplished. To all generations - Margin, as in Hebrew, “to generation and generation.” That is, from one generation of men to another; or, to all…”

“The Counsel - All his purposes and designs are always successful. Psalms 33:13”
