Psalms 83:16

_ _ that they may seek — or as Psalms 83:18, supply “men,” since Psalms 83:17, Psalms 83:18 amplify the sentiment of Psalms 83:16, expressing more fully the measure of destruction, and the lesson of God’s being and perfections (compare 2 Chronicles 20:29) taught to all men.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Psalms 83:9-18.
