Contextual Overview

17 (34-17) Lord, when wilt thou look upon me? rescue thou my soul from their malice: my only one from the lions. 18 (34-18) I will give thanks to thee in a great church; I will praise thee in a strong people. 19 (34-19) Let not them that are my enemies wrongfully rejoice over me: who have hated me without cause, and wink with the eyes. 20 (34-20) For they spoke indeed peaceably to me; and speaking in the anger of the earth they devised guile. 21 (34-21) And they opened their mouth wide against me; they said: Well done, well done, our eyes have seen it. 22 (34-22) Thou hast seen, O Lord, be not thou silent: O Lord, depart not from me. 23 (34-23) Arise, and be attentive to my judgment: to my cause, my God, and my Lord. 24 (34-24) Judge me, O Lord my God according to thy justice, and let them not rejoice over me. 25 (34-25) Let them not say in their hearts: It is well, it is well, to our mind: neither let them say: We have swallowed him up. 26 (34-26) Let them blush: and be ashamed to gether, who rejoice at my evils. Let them be clothed with confusion and shame, who speak great things against me.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

I will give thee thanks in the great congregation,.... This is the resolution the psalmist came unto; the promise he made, that should he be delivered from his enemies, he would give God thanks in the most public manner; that is, he would acknowledge God to be the author of the mercy, and himself unworthy of it; and would ascribe glory, honour, blessing, and thanksgiving to him, in the midst of the church and people of God; they joining with him in it, when he should be restored to an attendance with them he before prays for;

I will praise thee among much people; meaning the same as before, the people of God meeting together for solemn worship; the great congregation of all, and the much people, will be the saints in heaven, when they shall be gathered together, and sing the song of Moses and the Lamb. The words will bear to be applied to the Messiah, see

Psalms 22:22.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

I will give thee thanks ... - That is, When I am delivered I will publicly express my gratitude and joy. Compare Psalms 22:25; Psalms 18:49.

I will praise thee among much people - Margin, “strong.” So the Hebrew. The idea here is, “strong in respect to numbers;” that is, when a large body of people should be assembled together.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 35:18. I will give thee thanks in the great congregation — I hope to be able to attend at the tabernacle with thy followers, and there publicly express my gratitude for the deliverance thou hast given me.
