et opera manuum ejus annuntiat firmamentum.
Dies diei eructat verbum,
et nox nocti indicat scientiam.
Non sunt loquel�, neque sermones,
quorum non audiantur voces eorum.
In omnem terram exivit sonus eorum,
et in fines orbis terr� verba eorum.
In sole posuit tabernaculum suum;
et ipse tamquam sponsus procedens de thalamo suo.
Exsultavit ut gigas ad currendam viam;
a summo c�lo egressio ejus.
Et occursus ejus usque ad summum ejus;
nec est qui se abscondat a calore ejus.
Lex Domini immaculata, convertens animas;
testimonium Domini fidele, sapientiam pr�stans parvulis.
Justiti� Domini rect�, l�tificantes corda;
pr�ceptum Domini lucidum, illuminans oculos.
Timor Domini sanctus, permanens in s�culum s�culi;
judicia Domini vera, justificata in semetipsa,
desiderabilia super aurum et lapidem pretiosum multum,
et dulciora super mel et favum.
Etenim servus tuus custodit ea;
in custodiendis illis retributio multa.
Delicta quis intelligit?
ab occultis meis munda me;
et ab alienis parce servo tuo.
Si mei non fuerint dominati, tunc immaculatus ero,
et emundabor a delicto maximo.
Et erunt ut complaceant eloquia oris mei,
et meditatio cordis mei in conspectu tuo semper.
Domine, adjutor meus, et redemptor meus.]

Gill's Notes on the Bible

For who [is] God save the Lord?.... Or Jehovah: there is but one God, and Jehovah is he; there is none besides him, nor any like him: there are many that are called gods, nominal deities, who are not by nature gods; fictitious ones, the idols of the Gentiles, made of gold, silver, brass, wood, and stone; but there is but one true God: there are gods, in an improper sense, as civil magistrates; but there is none really and truly so but the Lord; which is to be understood, not of Jehovah the Father, to the exclusion of the Son and Spirit; for the Son is Jehovah, and the Spirit is Jehovah; both are so called, as well as the Father, and all three one God;

or who [is] a rock save our God? to have recourse to for shelter and protection; or to trust to, and build upon, for eternal life and salvation. False gods are rocks; but not like ours, our enemies themselves being judges, Deuteronomy 32:31; so Apollo at Delphos is called the Delphian rock n: the words seem to be taken from, or at least there is in them a reference to, 1 Samuel 2:2.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

For who is God save the Lord? - Who is God except Yahweh? The idea is, that no other being has evinced the power, the wisdom, and the goodness which properly belong to the true God; or, that the things which are implied in the true nature of God are found in no other being.

Or who is a rock save our God? - See Psalms 18:2. There is no one who can furnish such safety or defense; no one under whose protection we can be secure in danger. Compare Deuteronomy 32:31.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 18:31. For who is God save the Lord? — "For who is Eloah, except Jehovah?" None is worthy of adoration but the self-existent, eternal, infinitely perfect, and all-merciful Being.

Or who is a rock — A fountain emitting continual supplies of grace and goodness.
