Psalms 76:4

Verse 4. Delighted. Hebrew “cried out,” which many explain through sorrow. But the Septuagint seem rather to take it in a different sense, as well as the swooning, which might proceed from ecstatic joy (Bert.) at the thought of God. The alternate sorrows and joys of the just are well described. They are seldom allowed to continue long in the same state. Prot. “I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah.” Saint Jerome “I spoke within myself,” exercising myself in meditation. Bible.—I was sometimes in such distress, that nothing seemed capable of giving me any comfort. But I relied on God, and was in an ecstacy. Worthington.
