Your hand will find out all your enemies; your right hand will find out those who hate you.
David could have given thanks to God in private, but he testified publicly that whatever blessings God conferred upon him redounded to the common good of all His people. Yet above all, the Holy Spirit directs our minds here to Christ, who was the end and perfection of this kingdom, teaching us we cannot be saved except under the Head God Himself appointed.

Commenting on Psalm 21:1-13
"Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies: thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee." The destruction of the wicked is a fitting subject for joy to the friends of righteousness; hence here, and in most scriptural songs, it is noted with calm thanksgiving.
Christ our King trusts in God and shall not be moved; His joy and confidence are the ground of ours. The mercy of the Most High secures His happiness and ours, and silences all our fears. He will utterly overthrow all impenitent enemies who refuse His reign.
