This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





He draweth, either into his net, as Psa_10:9, or to his party, to assist and serve him in his enterprises.



The mighty; who are mighty in place, or wealth, or power; he practiseth upon these as well as upon the poor.



With his power; which being greater than theirs, he soon forceth them to comply with his desires and demands.



He riseth up, to wit, against any man, as this phrase is used, Psa_18:38 44:5; when he sets himself against a man, and resolves to destroy him.



No man is sure of life, i.e. none of them whom he so opposeth can be secure or confident of holding his life, but all such give up themselves for lost men, as knowing they cannot resist his greater might: compare Deu_28:26.
