Gill's Notes on the Bible

Thy fierce wrath goeth over me,.... Or "wraths" h, burning wrath; the whole of divine wrath, in all its fierceness, due to the sins of his people: these, like the mighty waves of the sea, passed over him, threatening to overwhelm him, Psalms 89:38,

thy terrors have cut me off; from the presence of God, and out of his sight; as sometimes the Lord's people are ready to imagine, when forsaken by him, Psalms 31:22 or from the land of the living, as the Messiah was, and in a judicial way, though not for any sin of his own,

Isaiah 53:8.
