Psalms 149:9

Psa 149:9 To execute upon them the judgment written: this honour have all his saints. Praise ye the LORD.

Ver. 9. To execute upon them the judgment written ] The Jews thought they might kill any idolaters; and now to kill a Christian is counted by them a meritorious work. The wicked are apt to exceed their commission, Zechariah 1:15 . So may the saints. David was too cruel to the Ammonites, 2 Samuel 12:31 , Theodosius to the Thessalonians. Here, therefore, they are limited to the word "written."

This honour have all his saints ] As having obtained like precious faith, 2 Peter 1:1 .
