I will also praise thee with the psaltery, etc.] An instrument of music; (see Gill on “<193302>Psalm 33:2”); [even] thy truth, O my God; that is, his faithfulness in fulfilling his promises, which is never suffered to fail; unto thee will I sing with the harp; another instrument of music; and both typical of the spiritual melody in the heart, which believers make in praising the Lord, when they sing the Lamb’s new song; (see <661402>Revelation 14:2,3); O thou Holy One of Israel; the God of Israel, that dwells among them, and sanctifies them; and who is essentially and perfectly holy in himself, and in all his ways and works; the remembrance of which occasions praise and thankfulness, (<199712>Psalm 97:12).
