Contextual Overview

¹Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; His loving devotion endures forever. ²Let Israel say, "His loving devotion endures forever." ³Let the house of Aaron say, "His loving devotion endures forever." ⁴Let those who fear the LORD say, "His loving devotion endures forever."⁵In my distress I called to the LORD, and He answered and set me free. ⁶The LORD is on my side; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me? ⁷The LORD is on my side; He is my helper. Therefore I will look in triumph on those who hate me. ⁸It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in man. ⁹It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in princes. ¹⁰All the nations surrounded me; in the name of the LORD I will surely cut them off.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Let them now that fear the Lord say, that his mercy [endureth] for ever. Not the proselytes to the Jewish religion only, but all that feared the Lord among all people, as Aben Ezra observes; such as fear the Lord and his goodness, and have had an experience of his grace and mercy, which has caused them to fear him; and to whom the mercy of God is great, and on whom it is from everlasting to everlasting; and therefore should speak well of it, and set their seal to it, that it abides for ever; see Psalms 103:11.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Let them now that fear the Lord say ... - Compare Psalms 115:11. All that worship God are interested in what God has done for me. It is a manifestation of the divine character which should cheer them. They are called, therefore, to unite with the author of the psalm in praise and thanksgiving, not merely from sympathy with him, but because great truths of religion had been illustrated, in his case, which were of as much importance to them as to him.
