Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then shall thou prosper, if thou takest heed to fulfil the statutes,.... See 1 Kings 2:2 where the same things are said as here: which shows that this was spoken by David a little before his death.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Be strong ... - David adopts the words of Moses to the Israelites (compare the marginal references) and to Joshua.
