Contextual Overview

1 The Lord is a God who punishes. God, show your greatness and punish! 2 Rise up, Judge of the earth, and give the proud what they deserve. 3 How long will the wicked be happy? How long, Lord ? 4 They are full of proud words; those who do evil brag about what they have done. 5 Lord , they crush your people and make your children suffer. 6 They kill widows and foreigners and murder orphans. 7 They say, "The Lord doesn't see; the God of Jacob doesn't notice." 8 You stupid ones among the people, pay attention. You fools, when will you understand? 9 Can't the creator of ears hear? Can't the maker of eyes see? 10 Won't the one who corrects nations punish you? Doesn't the teacher of people know everything?

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Lord, how long shall the wicked,.... The reign of antichrist is thought long by the saints, being the space of forty two months, or 1260 days or years and this tries the faith and patience of the church of Christ, Revelation 13:5

how long shall the wicked triumph? in their prosperity, and in the ruins of the interest of Christ; the Targum is,

"how long shall they sit in tranquillity, or prosperity?''

the triumphing of the wicked may seem long, but it is but short,

Job 20:5, the inhabitants of the Romish jurisdiction will triumph when the witnesses are slain, and send gifts to one another, as a token of their joy; but this will not last long, no more than three days, or three years and a half; and while antichrist is saying, I sit a queen, and shall know no sorrow, her plagues shall come upon her in one day,

Revelation 11:10.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Lord, how long shall the wicked ... - As if there were to be no end to their exaltation; their joy; their success. How long would God allow this? How long would he sit by and see it done? Was he disposed to let them go on forever? Would he never interpose, and arrest them in their career? How often do we wonder that God does not interpose! How often does it seem inexplicable that a Being of almighty power and infinite goodness does not interfere with respect to the wickedness, the oppression, the slavery, the wrong, the cruelty, the fraud, the violence of the world - and put an end to it! Nay, how entirely are we overwhelmed at the thought that he does not put an end to iniquity in the universe altogether; that he never “will” thus interpose, and put an end to sin and sorrow! Such things are too high for us now; perhaps will be always so. Things on earth are not as we should suppose they would be; and we can only pause and adore where we cannot comprehend!

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 94:3. How long shall the wicked triumph? — The wicked are often in prosperity; and this only shows us of how little worth riches are in the sight of God, when he bestows them on the most contemptible of mortals. But their time and prosperity have their bounds.
