Charles Ellicott Commentary Psalms 9:4

"For thou hast maintained my right and my cause; Thou sittest in the throne judging righteously." — Psalms 9:4 (ASV)

Thou hast maintained my right. —Literally, thou hast made my judgment, as the Septuagint and Vulgate. For this confidence in the supreme arbiter of events, compare Shakespeare:

“Is this your Christian counsel? Out upon you!
Heaven is above all yet. There sits a Judge
That no king can corrupt.”—Henry VIII.
