Psalms 145:6
And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and I will declare thy greatness.
145:6. And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts. Under mercies people may be dumb, but concerning miseries they raise a great outcry. While they are thus occupied with “fearsome facts,” David would look at these affairs in another light, and sing another tune.
And I will declare thy greatness. Those acts which were terrible deeds to most people were mighty deeds, or “greatnesses,” to our poet. It is the occupation of every true believer to tell of the great doings of his great God. We are personally to make a declaration of what we have seen and known. We are even bound in deep solemnity of manner to warn people of the Lord’s greatness in his terrible acts of justice: thus will they be admonished to abstain from provoking him.
