span data-lang="lat" data-trans="jvl" data-ref="psa.89.1" class="versetxt"> Oratio Moysi, hominis Dei. [Domine, refugium factus es nobis
a generatione in generationem.
Priusquam montes fierent,
aut formaretur terra et orbis,
a sæculo et usque in sæculum tu es, Deus.
Ne avertas hominem in humilitatem:
et dixisti: Convertimini, filii hominum.
Quoniam mille anni ante oculos tuos
tamquam dies hesterna quæ præteriit:
et custodia in nocte quæ pro nihilo habentur,
eorum anni erunt.
Mane sicut herba transeat;
mane floreat, et transeat;
vespere decidat, induret, et arescat.
Quia defecimus in ira tua,
et in furore tuo turbati sumus.
Posuisti iniquitates nostras in conspectu tuo;
sæculum nostrum in illuminatione vultus tui.
Quoniam omnes dies nostri defecerunt,
et in ira tua defecimus.
Anni nostri sicut aranea meditabuntur;
dies annorum nostrorum in ipsis septuaginta anni.
Si autem in potentatibus octoginta anni,
et amplius eorum labor et dolor;
quoniam supervenit mansuetudo, et corripiemur.
Quis novit potestatem iræ tuæ,
et præ timore tuo iram tuam dinumerare?
Dexteram tuam sic notam fac,
et eruditos corde in sapientia.
Convertere, Domine; usquequo?
et deprecabilis esto super servos tuos.
Repleti sumus mane misericordia tua;
et exsultavimus, et delectati sumus omnibus diebus nostris.
Lætati sumus pro diebus quibus nos humiliasti;
annis quibus vidimus mala.
Respice in servos tuos et in opera tua,
et dirige filios eorum.
Et sit splendor Domini Dei nostri super nos,
et opera manuum nostrarum dirige super nos,
et opus manuum nostrarum dirige.]

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Thou hast broken down all his hedges,.... Round about his vine, the church; see Psalms 80:12. A famous church was raised at Jerusalem, quickly after the death, resurrection, and ascension of Christ, which seemed to be well filled, fenced, and protected; but on a sudden a violent persecution arose, and the members of it were made havoc of, and the ministers of the word were scattered abroad, and which was the breaking down of the hedges; and what was done to the church was taken by Christ as done to himself, as it is here spoken of him; see Acts 8:1, and this might seem contrary to the word and oath of God, that his seed should endure for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven, Psalms 89:29, when the first Christian church was used in this manner; but that providence was overruled, for the spread of the Gospel, and the interest of Christ, in other parts; see Acts 8:4, and so no objection to what is before said:

thou hast brought his strong holds to ruin; the same as before, the church of Christ, which seemed to be so well built and fortified; see

Isaiah 26:1.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Thou hast broken down all his hedges - His walls or defenses; all that he relied on for safety.

Thou hast brought his strongholds to ruin - His towers, fortifications; defenses. The enemy has been suffered to destroy them. They are now heaps of ruins.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 89:40. Thou hast broken down all his hedges — Thou hart permitted the land to be stripped of all defence; there is not even one strong place in the hands of thy people.
