8. He teaches God's providence
12. He shows the blessedness of affliction
16. God is the defender of the afflicted.














(5) Break in pieces.--Or, crush. (See Isaiah 3:15, where the word is in parallelism with "grind the faces of the poor.")

Verse 5. - They break in pieces thy people, O Lord; or, "crush," "oppress" (comp. Isaiah 3:15; Proverbs 22:22, where the verb is evidently used, not of foreign foes, but of domestic oppressors). And afflict thine heritage; or, "thine inheritance" - those whom thou hast taken to be thy "peculiar people" (Deuteronomy 14:2), thine own exclusive possession.
