Gill's Notes on the Bible
Let all those that seek thee,.... The Targum is,
"that seek doctrine (or instruction) from thee.''
rejoice and be glad in thee; the Targum paraphrases it,
"rejoice and be glad in thy word.''
and let such as love thy salvation say continually, let God be magnified; the Targum is,
"let the glory of the Lord be increased;''
and in Psalms 40:16, instead of "God", it is "the Lord", or "Jehovah":
Psalms 40:16- :.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Let all those that seek thee ... - The only change in this verse from Psalms 40:16, is in the insertion of the word “and” in the beginning of the second clause - “and let such as love,” etc.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Psalms 70:4. Let God be magnified. — Let his glory, mercy, and kindness, continually appear in the increase of his own work in the souls of his followers!
