Psalms 44:8

“The Lord shall preserve thy going out, and thy coming in, etc.] In transacting all the business of life, in going in and out about it; in all ways, works, and conversation; in journeying and travelling; in all affairs, civil and religious; and not only preserve, but prosper in all, (<190103>Psalm 1:3); the Lord blessing him, coming in and going out, (<052806>Deuteronomy 28:6); and such, with the poetf1746, are said to go with a good or prosperous foot. And such persons, in the Punic language, are called Namphanians, as Austin observesf1747; who says the word signifies a man of a good foot: and the word seems to be the contraction of wm[p µ[n, which signifies “his good” or “pleasant…”

“thy name--as in Psa 5:11.”

“In God we boast all the day long - That is, continually or constantly. It is not a momentary or temporary expression of our feelings, but it is our habitual and constant employment. We have no other ground of reliance, and we express that reliance constantly. The word rendered “boast” here rather more literally means praise: “In God we praise all the day long.” The idea is, that he was their only ground of confidence. They ascribed all their former successes to him; they had no other reliance now. And praise thy name for ever - We do it now; we shall never cease to do it. Selah - On the meaning of this word, see the notes at Psalms 3:2. return to 'Top of Page'”
