You rebuke
The Hebrew word for "rebuke" is "גָּעַר" (ga'ar), which conveys a strong sense of reprimand or correction. In the biblical context, God's rebuke is not merely a verbal chastisement but a divine intervention aimed at redirecting the wayward. This word underscores God's active role in maintaining moral order and His commitment to justice. The rebuke serves as both a warning and an opportunity for repentance, reflecting God's desire for all to return to His ways.

the arrogant
The term "arrogant" is translated from the Hebrew "זֵדִים" (zedim), which refers to those who are prideful and insolent. In the biblical narrative, arrogance is often associated with a rejection of God's authority and wisdom. The arrogant are those who elevate themselves above God's law, believing they are self-sufficient. This pride is a recurring theme throughout Scripture, often leading to downfall, as seen in the accounts of figures like Pharaoh and Nebuchadnezzar. The psalmist highlights the danger of arrogance as it blinds individuals to their need for God.

the cursed
The word "cursed" comes from the Hebrew "אֲרוּרִים" (arurim), indicating those who are under a divine curse due to their disobedience. In the Old Testament, blessings and curses are significant themes, representing the outcomes of obedience or disobedience to God's covenant. The cursed are those who have chosen a path contrary to God's will, resulting in separation from His favor and protection. This serves as a solemn reminder of the consequences of straying from God's commandments.

who stray
"Stray" is derived from the Hebrew "שָׁגָה" (shagah), meaning to wander or go astray. This term paints a picture of sheep that have left the safety of the shepherd's care, vulnerable to danger. In a spiritual sense, straying signifies a departure from God's path, often due to neglect or rebellion. The imagery of straying is prevalent in Scripture, emphasizing the need for vigilance and the importance of remaining close to God's guidance.

from Your commandments
The phrase "Your commandments" refers to the divine laws and instructions given by God, known in Hebrew as "מִצְוֹתֶיךָ" (mitzvotecha). These commandments are not merely rules but are expressions of God's character and His will for humanity. They are designed to lead to a life of righteousness, peace, and fulfillment. The psalmist's focus on God's commandments highlights their centrality in the believer's life, serving as a guide for moral and spiritual conduct. The commandments are a testament to God's covenant relationship with His people, calling them to a higher standard of living.

(21) LXX. and Vulg. divide the verse: "Thou hast rebuked the proud; cursed are they," &c. This is preferable.

Verse 21. - Thou hast rebuked the proud. It is difficult to connect this with the preceding. But perhaps the link may be found in the double sense of mishpatim, "judgments," which includes verbal sentences against sinners delivered in the Law, and also actual sentences upon them in deed and fact. These last are in the writer's mind in the present verse - such judgments as those upon Pharaoh (Exodus 14:23-31), Zerah (2 Chronicles 14:9-15), and Sennacherib (2 Kings 19:32-37). That are cursed. This clause is questioned, as metrically redundant. But Hebrew metrology is scarcely as yet an exact science. And the clause finds its justification in Deuteronomy 27:26. Which do err from thy commandments. Such error brings under a curse those who commit it. If it be a blessed thing to walk in God's Law (ver. 1), it must be a cursed thing to transgress against it.
