“Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him; and those that trouble me rejoice when I am moved.”
Psalms 13:4 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 13:4
David fears two outcomes if he falls: his enemy will say 'I have prevailed,' and his foes will rejoice. This reveals proper concern for God's glory—David's defeat would give God's enemies occasion to boast. The Hebrew 'yakol' (prevail) suggests overpowering strength. This anticipates Christ's concern that His Father's name be glorified even in suffering (John 12:28). Reformed theology sees our vindication as ultimately about God's honor.
