Contextual Overview

5 Lord , the heavens praise you for your miracles and for your loyalty in the meeting of your holy ones. 6 Who in heaven is equal to the Lord ? None of the angels is like the Lord . 7 When the holy ones meet, it is God they fear. He is more frightening than all who surround him. 8 Lord God All-Powerful, who is like you? Lord , you are powerful and completely trustworthy. 9 You rule the mighty sea and calm the stormy waves. 10 You crushed the sea monster Rahab; by your power you scattered your enemies. 11 The skies and the earth belong to you. You made the world and everything in it. 12 You created the north and the south. Mount Tabor and Mount Hermon sing for joy at your name. 13 Your arm has great power. Your hand is strong; your right hand is lifted up. 14 Your kingdom is built on what is right and fair. Love and truth are in all you do.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Thou hast a mighty arm,.... Christ is the arm of the Lord, and a mighty one he is, and so is the Gospel, which is the power of God unto salvation; here it seems to design the almighty power of God, displayed in the works of creation and providence; see Isaiah 51:9

strong is thy hand; thy "left hand", as some, it being distinguished from his right hand, mentioned in the next clause; the Targum adds,

"to redeem thy people;''

the work of redemption was put into the hand of Christ, and it prospered in his hand, and his own arm brought salvation to him; and his hand is strong to keep and preserve his people, where they are put, and where they are safe; and the hand of the Lord is strong to correct and chastise them, and sometimes his hand lies heavy upon them, and presses them sore, when it becomes them to humble themselves under his "mighty hand": and it also strong to punish his and their enemies:

and high is thy right hand; when it is lifted up in a way of judgment against wicked men, and for the defence of his people, then may it be said to be exalted: and it is high enough to reach the highest and most powerful of his adversaries; see Psalms 118:16. The Targum adds,

"to build the house of thy sanctuary.''

Some render c these two last clauses as a wish or prayer; "let thy hand be strong, and let thy right hand be lifted up".

c So Paginus, Montana, and V. L.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Thou hast a mighty arm - Margin, as in Hebrew,” an arm with might.” That is, Thou hast great power - the arm being the instrument by which we accomplish our purposes.

Strong is thy hand - The hand, too, is an instrument by which we execute our plans. Hence, God is so often represented a having delivered his people with a strong hand.

And high is thy right hand - It is by the right hand particularly that we carry out our purposes. We lift it high when we are about to strike with force. All this is expressive of the divine omnipotence.
