SEV Biblia, Chapter 20:1
¶ Al Vencedor: Salmo de David. El SEÑOR te oiga en el día de la angustia; te ensalce el nombre del Dios de Jacob.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Psalms 19:1
Verse 1. The Lord hear thee ] David had already offered the sacrifice and prayed. The people implore God to succour him in the day of trouble; of both personal and national danger. The name of the God of Jacob ] This refers to Jacob's wrestling with the Angel; Gen. xxxii. 24, &c. And who was this Angel? Evidently none other than the Angel of the Covenant, the Lord Jesus, in whom was the name of God, the fullness of the Godhead bodily. He was the God of Jacob, who blessed Jacob, and gave him a new name and a new nature. See the notes on the above place in Genesis.
Matthew Henry Commentary
This psalm is a prayer for the kings of Israel, but with relation to Christ.
--Even the greatest of men may be much in trouble. Neither the crown of the king's head, nor the grace in his heart, would make him free from trouble. Even the greatest of men must be much in prayer. Let non expect benefit by the prayers of the church, or their friends, who ar capable of praying for themselves, yet neglect it. Pray that God woul protect his person, and preserve his life. That God would enable him to go on in his undertakings for the public good. We may know that God accepts our spiritual sacrifices, if by his Spirit he kindles in ou souls a holy fire of piety and love to God. Also, that the Lord woul crown his enterprises with success. Our first step to victory i spiritual warfare is to trust only in the mercy and grace of God; all who trust in themselves will soon be cast down. Believers triumph i God, and his revelation of himself to them, by which they distinguis themselves from those that live without God in the world. Those wh make God and his name their praise, may make God and his name their trust. This was the case when the pride and power of Jewish unbelief and pagan idolatry, fell before the sermons and lives of the humbl believers in Jesus. This is the case in every conflict with ou spiritual enemies, when we engage them in the name, the spirit, and the power of Christ; and this will be the case at the last day, when the world, with the prince of it, shall be brought down and fall; but believers, risen-from the dead, through the resurrection of the Lord shall stand, and sing his praises in heaven. In Christ's salvation le us rejoice; and set up our banners in the name of the Lord our God assured that by the saving strength of his right hand we shall be conquerors over every enemy __________________________________________________________________
