Psalm 5
1. David prays, and professes his study in prayer
4. God favors not the wicked
7. David, professing his faith, prays to God to guide him
10. to destroy his enemies
11. and to preserve the godly














(5) Foolish.--Literally, shiners--i.e., displayers of self; or, perhaps, self-praisers, boasters.

Shall not stand.--As distinguished men before kings (Proverbs 22:29); as angels in the court of the heavenly King (Job 1:6).

Verse 5. - The foolish (or, the arrogant - "the boasters") shall not stand in thy light. Rather shall they be cast down and dismayed (Psalm 73:3, 18). Thou hatest all workers of iniquity. David has in mind the wicked and presumptuous men who have handed themselves together against him, and "take his contrary part" (Psalm 109:3, Prayer-book Version). These he is sure that God hates.
