Psalms 52:9 - Exposition

I will praise thee for ever, because thou hast done it . So Dr. Kay, who explains the passage as meaning, "because thou hast worked out this deliverance.' The tense is "the preterite of prophetic certainty" (comp. Psalms 54:7 ). And I will wait on thy Name; for it is good before thy saints; rather, I will wait on thy Name in the presence of thy saints , because it is good ; or perhaps, if we adopt Hupfeld's emendation ( אֲחַוֶּה for אֲקַוֶּה ), I will precision thy Name before thy saints that it is good (so Cheyne).
