76:5 The stouthearted are spoiled, they have slept their sleep: and none of the men of might have {d} found their hands.
(d) God has taken their spirits and strength from them as though their hands were cut off.
76:5 Sleep - Even a perpetual sleep.
76:1-6 Happy people are those who have their land filled with the knowledge of God! happy persons that have their hearts filled with that knowledge! It is the glory and happiness of a people to have God among them by his ordinances. Wherein the enemies of the church deal proudly, it will appear that God is above them. See the power of God's rebukes. With pleasure may Christians apply this to the advantages bestowed by the Redeemer.
