Psalms 69:31 meaning and explanation

And this will please the LORD more than an ox, more than a bull with horns and hooves.

Psalms 69:31, Berean Standard Bible

Explanation preview

The speaker is David, a suffering servant of God surrounded by mockers and enemies, and in verses 30 and 31 he vows to praise God's name in song. His point is comparative: such thanksgiving pleases the LORD more than an ox, more than a bull with horns and hooves, that is, more than the most complete animal sacrifice the law required.
