Psalm 9:5 Douay-Rheims

For thou hast maintained my judgment and my cause: thou hast sat on the throne, who judgest justice.

Rashi

1040–1105 Jewish

prosper Heb. יחילו, prosper, and similar to this is (in Job 20:21): “therefore shall his goods not prosper (יחיל).” Others explain יחילו like (II Sam. 3:29): “May it rest (יחולו) upon the head of Joab.” Your judgments are far removed from him Your judgments of pains and punishments are removed and distanced from him, for they do not come upon him. All his adversaries he blows at them With a blowing of wind, he blows at them, and they fall before him.
