10 And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: yea, he did fly upon the wings of the wind.
10 He mounted the cherubim and flew; he soared on the wings of the wind.
10 He rode on a cherub and flew; he came swiftly on the wings of the wind.
10 He's riding a winged creature, swift on wind-wings.
10 And He rode upon a cherub, and flew; He flew upon the wings of the wind.
10 Mounted on a mighty angelic being, he flew, soaring on the wings of the wind.
991 The Lord reigns, let the nations tremble; he sits enthroned between the cherubim, let the earth shake.
991 The Lord reigns; let the peoples tremble! He sits enthroned upon the cherubim; let the earth quake!
991 God rules. On your toes, everybody! He rules from his angel throne - take notice!
991 The Lord reigns; Let the peoples tremble! He dwells between the cherubim; Let the earth be moved!
991 The Lord is king! Let the nations tremble! He sits on his throne between the cherubim. Let the whole earth quake!
(Read Psalm 99:1-5)
God governs the world by his providence, governs the church by his grace, and both by his Son. The inhabitants of the earth have cause to tremble, but the Redeemer still waits to be gracious. Let all who hear, take warning, and seek his mercy. The more we humble ourselves before God, the more we exalt him; and let us be thus reverent, for he is holy.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Psalm 18:10
Commentary on Psalm 18:1-19
(Read Psalm 18:1-19)
The first words, "I will love thee, O Lord, my strength," are the scope and contents of the psalm. Those that truly love God, may triumph in him as their Rock and Refuge, and may with confidence call upon him. It is good for us to observe all the circumstances of a mercy which magnify the power of God and his goodness to us in it. David was a praying man, and God was found a prayer-hearing God. If we pray as he did, we shall speed as he did. God's manifestation of his presence is very fully described, Hebrews 5:7. God made the earth to shake and tremble, and the rocks to cleave, and brought him out, in his resurrection, because he delighted in him and in his undertaking.
