Psalms 132:18. His enemies will I clothe with shame:
In this Psalm two sets of clothing are mentioned; and you can have which you like. Here is one, "I will clothe her priests with salvation;" and there is the other, "His enemies will I clothe with shame? Shame is a terrible thing, many a man has thrown away his life to try to escape from the shame of a guilty conscience; but the ungodly will be for ever clothed with shame, and they will be eternally condemned. "His enemies," that is the description of the ungodly. It is of small account what your outward character appears to be; if you are an enemy of Christ, these are the garments in which you will die, and these are the garments in which you will continue to suffer for ever: "His enemies will I clothe with shame."
Psalms 132:18. But upon himself shall his crown flourish.
Upon Christ the laurel wreath, or rather, the crown of glory, shall never wither. "He shall not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set judgment in the earth: and the isles shall wait for his law."
