Gill's Notes on the Bible
For thou hast girded me with strength unto battle,.... See
Psalms 18:32; that natural strength, courage and valour, which David had, were from the Lord; and so is the Spirit of power, love, and of a sound mind, which believers have; and likewise that strength which Christ, as man, had and used in his combat with the powers of darkness; see
Psalms 80:17;
thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me; as the psalmist ascribes his strength, so he attributes his success to the Lord; who likewise subdues the sins of his people, and all other enemies of theirs, and who also makes the enemies of his Son his footstool, Psalms 110:1.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle - See the note at Psalms 18:32. Compare Job 12:18; Proverbs 31:17.
Thou hast subdued under me - Margin, as in Hebrew, caused to bow. That is, God had caused them to submit to him; he had enabled him to overcome them; still acknowledging that all this was from God, and that the praise was due to Him, and not to the power of his own arm.
