Contextual Overview

5 O God, the very heauens shall confesse thy wonderous workes: and thy trueth in the congregation of saintes. 6 For who is he in the cloudes that shal matche God: [and who] is like vnto God amongst the children gods? 7 God is very terrible in the assemblie of saintes: and to be feared aboue al them that are about him. 8 O God, Lorde of hoastes, who is like vnto thee a most mightie Lorde: and thy trueth is on euery side thee. 9 Thou rulest the ragyng of the sea: when her waues aryse, thou delayest them. 10 Thou hast brought Egypt in so bad a case as if it were wounded: thou hast scattered thyne enemies abrode with thy mightie arme. 11 The heauens are thine, the earth also is thine: thou hast layde the foundation of the rounde worlde, and of all the plentie that is therin. 12 Thou hast made the north and the south: Tabor and Hermon do reioyce in thy name. 13 Thou hast a mightie arme: thy hand is strong, and thy right hand is exalted. 14 Iustice and iudgement is the foundation of thy throne: mercy and trueth shall go before thy face.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Thou hast a mighty arm,.... Christ is the arm of the Lord, and a mighty one he is, and so is the Gospel, which is the power of God unto salvation; here it seems to design the almighty power of God, displayed in the works of creation and providence; see Isaiah 51:9

strong is thy hand; thy "left hand", as some, it being distinguished from his right hand, mentioned in the next clause; the Targum adds,

"to redeem thy people;''

the work of redemption was put into the hand of Christ, and it prospered in his hand, and his own arm brought salvation to him; and his hand is strong to keep and preserve his people, where they are put, and where they are safe; and the hand of the Lord is strong to correct and chastise them, and sometimes his hand lies heavy upon them, and presses them sore, when it becomes them to humble themselves under his "mighty hand": and it also strong to punish his and their enemies:

and high is thy right hand; when it is lifted up in a way of judgment against wicked men, and for the defence of his people, then may it be said to be exalted: and it is high enough to reach the highest and most powerful of his adversaries; see Psalms 118:16. The Targum adds,

"to build the house of thy sanctuary.''

Some render c these two last clauses as a wish or prayer; "let thy hand be strong, and let thy right hand be lifted up".

c So Paginus, Montana, and V. L.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Thou hast a mighty arm - Margin, as in Hebrew,” an arm with might.” That is, Thou hast great power - the arm being the instrument by which we accomplish our purposes.

Strong is thy hand - The hand, too, is an instrument by which we execute our plans. Hence, God is so often represented a having delivered his people with a strong hand.

And high is thy right hand - It is by the right hand particularly that we carry out our purposes. We lift it high when we are about to strike with force. All this is expressive of the divine omnipotence.
