RR Psalm 52:11 Part 6
Shalom,
Psalm 52:11 I will praise You forever for what You have done. I will hope in Your Name, for it is good, in the presence of Your kedoshim.
Here is my own amplified translation of verse 11, which is the last verse of Psalm 52. “I will thank You for all eternity (to the end of the universe), on account of Your works, and I will collect (my thoughts) and wait patiently on Your name. It is good (to be) in the presence of Your holy and kindly saints.”
Many Psalms, Psalm 52 included, follow a similar pattern…. They typically start with repentance over sin and the pronunciation of various judgments as a consequence. Then all that calamity is followed by a “love fest” of praise for God and His ways, leading to a happy ending. That’s the story of Psalm 52. The Psalm ends with eternal thanksgiving and an expression of goodness in the presence of God’s people because they are filled with grace. Echos of Revelation 19…
Revelation 19:6 Then I heard something… saying, “Halleluyah! For Adonai Elohei-Tzva’ot reigns! 7 Let us rejoice and be glad and give the glory to Him! For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and His bride has made herself ready.
King David spent many years with his life threatened by Israel’s first king (Saul). David’s Son, Yeshua, Who is the Lamb, also lived with His life threatened by Israel’s ruler. Ultimately, Yeshua had His life taken from Him, but then, in victorious resurrection, He was able to take it up again.
John 10:18 “No one takes it away from Me, but I lay it down on My own. I have the authority to lay it down, and I have the authority to take it up again. This command I received from My Father.”
Thus, Yeshua became the first (to be raised from the dead) among many brethren. We who follow the Lord have this inheritance… Romans 8:28 Now we know that all things work together for good for those who love God, who are called according to His purpose. 29 For those whom He foreknew He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, so that He might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters.
As a consequence, we are led to this conclusion… Romans 8:36 As it is written, “For Your sake we are being put to death all day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.” 37 But in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. 38a For I am convinced that neither death nor life, 39b nor any other created thing will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Messiah Yeshua our Lord.
And that is the reason we wait patiently, with faith, believing our redemption draws near. Luke 21:28 “Now when these things begin to happen, stand straight and lift up your heads, because your salvation is near!” Shalom shalom.
