　　Commentary on Psalm 32:8-11

　　(Read Psalm 32:8-11)

　　God teaches by his word, and guides with the secret intimations of his will. David gives a word of caution to sinners. The reason for this caution is, that the way of sin will certainly end in sorrow. Here is a word of comfort to saints. They may see that a life of communion with God is far the most pleasant and comfortable. Let us rejoice, O Lord Jesus, in thee, and in thy salvation; so shall we rejoice indeed.

　　Psalm 32:10 In-Context

　　8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my loving eye on you.

　　9 Do not be like the horse or the mule, which have no understanding but must be controlled by bit and bridle or they will not come to you.

　　10 Many are the woes of the wicked, but the Lord's unfailing love surrounds the one who trusts in him.

　　11 Rejoice in the Lord and be glad, you righteous; sing, all you who are upright in heart!
