Contextual Overview
Written by David, when he pretended to be insane before Abimelech, causing the king to send him away.
I will praise the Lord at all times; my mouth will continually praise him. 2 I will boast in the Lord ; let the oppressed hear and rejoice! 3 Magnify the Lord with me! Let's praise his name together! 4 I sought the Lord 's help and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears. 5 Those who look to him for help are happy; their faces are not ashamed. 6 This oppressed man cried out and the Lord heard; he saved him from all his troubles. 7 The Lord 's angel camps around the Lord 's loyal followers and delivers them. 8 Taste and see that the Lord is good! How blessed is the one who takes shelter in him! 9 Remain loyal to the Lord , you chosen people of his, for his loyal followers lack nothing! 10 Even young lions sometimes lack food and are hungry, but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing.Bible Verse Review

Gill's Notes on the Bible
O magnify the Lord with me,.... The psalmist invites the humble ones, who he knew would rejoice at the goodness of God to him, to join with him in ascribing greatness to the Lord, which is meant by magnifying him; for he cannot be made great by men, only declared how great he is, and that can only be done in an imperfect manner;
and let us exalt his name together: by proclaiming him to be the most High; by making mention of his glorious perfections and works, that he be exalted; and by praising him in the highest strains; or by having the high praises of him in their mouths; and there is more pleasure as well as more glory brought to God by doing this in a social way, or by a number of saints joining together in such service.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
O magnify the Lord with me - This seems to be addressed primarily to the “humble,” those referred to in the previous verse. As they could appreciate what he would say, as they could understand the nature of his feelings in view of his deliverance, he calls upon them especially to exult with him in the goodness of God. As he and they had common calamities and trials, so might they have common joys; as they were united in danger and sorrow, so it was proper that they should be united in joy and in praise. The word “magnify’ means literally “to make great,” and then, to make great in the view of the mind, or to regard and treat as great. The idea is, that he wished all, in circumstances similar to those in which he had been placed, to have a just sense of the greatness of God, and of his claims to love and praise. Compare Psalms 35:27; Psalms 40:17; Psalms 69:30; Psalms 70:4; Luke 1:46.
And let us exalt his name together - Let us unite in “lifting up” his name; that is, in raising it above all other things in our own estimation, and in the view of our fellow-men; in so making it known that it shall rise above every other object, that all may see and adore.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Psalms 34:3. Magnify the Lord with me — גדלו ליהוה gaddelu lavhovah, "make greatness to Jehovah;" show his greatness; and let "us exalt his name," let us show how high and glorious it is.
