Contextual Overview

¹ We haue hearde with our eares O Lorde: our fathers haue tolde vs what workes thou hast done in their daies in the olde tyme. ² Howe thou hast driuen out the heathen with thy hande and planted them in: howe thou hast destroyed the nations & placed them. ³ For they gat not the lande in possession through their owne sworde: neither was it their owne arme that saued the. But thy ryght hande, and thine arme, & the lyght of thy countenaunce: because thou hadst a fauour vnto them. ⁴ Thou art my kyng O Lorde: commaunde that Iacob be saued. ⁵ Through thee we wyll ouerthrowe our enemies: and in thy name we wyll treade them vnder that ryse vp agaynst vs. ⁶ For I wyll not trust in my bowe: and it is not my sworde that can saue me. ⁷ But it is thou that sauest vs from our enemies: and thou puttest them to confusion that hate vs. ⁸ We make our boast of God all the day long: and we wyll confesse thy name for euer. Selah.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

For I will not trust in my bow,.... In any carnal weapon, in any creature help and assistance, or in an arm of flesh, but in the word of the Lord, and in his name; see Psalms 20:7;

neither shall my sword save me; that is, I will not ascribe salvation to it; the church's weapons are not carnal, but spiritual; not the sword of the civil magistrate, but the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; Christ's kingdom, being not of this world, is not supported and defended by worldly means, or carnal weapons.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

For I will not trust in my bow - The author of the psalm himself again speaks as expressing his own feelings, and stating the grounds of his confidence and hope. Compare Psalms 44:4. At the same time he doubtless expresses the feelings of the people, and speaks in their name. He had said Psalms 44:3 that the ancestors of the Jewish people had not obtained possession of the promised land by any strength or skill of their own, and he now says that he, and those who were connected with him, did not depend on their own strength, or on the weapons of war which they might employ, but that their only ground of trust was God.
