Gill's Notes on the Bible

And David behaved himself wisely in all his ways,.... Both in the court and in the camp, in whatsoever service he was employed; or "prospered" u, as the word also signifies; for, generally speaking, those that behave wisely succeed well; in this he was a type of Christ, Isaiah 52:13; the reason of it follows,

and the Lord [was] with him; from whom he had his wisdom and success; the Targum is,

"the Word of the Lord was for his help.''

u משכיל "prospere admodum res gerebat", Vatablus; "secundabatur", Junius Tremellius, Piscator so the Targum and Jarchi.
