31 "As for God, his way is perfect: The Lord's word is flawless; he shields all who take refuge in him.
31 As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the Lord is tried:
31 This God-- his way is perfect; the word of the Lord proves true; he is a shield for all those who take refuge in him.
31 What a God! His road stretches straight and smooth. Every God-direction is road-tested. Everyone who runs toward him Makes it.
31 As for God, His way is perfect; The word of the Lord is proven; He is a shield to all who trust in Him.
31 "God's way is perfect. All the Lord 's promises prove true. He is a shield for all who look to him for protection.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on 2 Samuel 22:31
Chapter Contents
David's psalm of thanksgiving.
This chapter is a psalm of praise; we find it afterwards nearly as 2 Timothy 4:18. Those who receive signal mercies from God, ought to give him the glory. In the day that God delivered David, he sang this song. While the mercy is fresh, and we are most affected with it, let the thank-offering be brought, to be kindled with the fire of that affection. All his joys and hopes close, as all our hopes should do, in the great Redeemer.
