Contextual Overview

¹¹ Those who know your name put their trust in you, for you have not abandoned those who seek you, Adonai . ¹² Sing praises to Adonai , who lives in Tziyon; proclaim his deeds among the peoples. ¹³ For the avenger of blood remembers them, he does not ignore the cry of the afflicted: ¹⁴ "Have mercy on me, Adonai ! See how I suffer from those who hate me; you raise me from the gates of death, ¹⁵ so that I can proclaim all your praises at the gates of the daughter of Tziyon and rejoice in this deliverance of yours." ¹⁶ The nations have drowned in the pit they dug, caught their own feet in the net they hid. ¹⁷ Adonai made himself known and executed judgment; the wicked are ensnared in the work of their own hands. (Higgayon; Selah) ¹⁸ The wicked will return to Sh'ol, all the nations that forget God. ¹⁹ For the poor will not always be forgotten or the hope of the needy perish forever. ²⁰ Arise, Adonai ! Don't let mortals prevail! Let the nations be judged in your presence. Strike them with terror, Adonai ! Let the nations know they are only human. (Selah)

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Arise, O Lord,.... To the destruction of thine enemies, and the salvation of thy people; :-;

let not man prevail; the man of sin, antichrist, that is, let him not always prevail; he is the little horn that was to prevail against the saints, and has prevailed, Daniel 7:21; but he shall not always prevail; this petition will be heard and answered; for though he shall cast down many thousands, he shall not be "strengthened" by it,

Daniel 11:12; where the same word is used as here; the Lamb at last shall overcome him and his ten kings, his supporters, and all that shall aid and assist him, Revelation 17:14;

let the Heathen be judged in thy sight; that is, the antichristian nations that adhere to the man of sin, let them be judged and punished in the sight of God, the Judge of all the earth, whose eyes are as a flame of fire; compare with this Joel 3:12.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Arise, O Lord - See the notes at Psalms 3:7.

Let not man prevail - Against thee and thy cause. The war waged against the psalmist he regarded as waged against God, and he calls upon him, therefore, to interpose and vindicate his own cause. The word rendered “prevail” is be strong; that is, let not man seem to be stronger than thou art, or let, him not succeed in his efforts in opposing thy cause.

Let the heathen be judged in thy sight - The nations to whom the writer had referred in the psalm, that were arrayed against him and against God. He desired that a just judgment should be passed on them, and that God would vindicate the righteous, and save them from the power of those who oppressed and wronged them.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 9:19. Arise, O Lord — Let this be the time in which thou wilt deliver thy poor people under oppression and persecution.
