Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 8. - Whose mouth speaketh vanity; rather, fraud (comp. Psalm 18:45). A feigned submission of some foreign enemy is probably glanced at. And their right hand is a right hand of falsehood. The right hand was lifted up in the taking of a solemn oath (see Ezekiel 20:15).

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(8) Right hand of falsehood.--Most probably with allusion to the custom (see Psalm 106:26) of raising the right hand in taking an oath.
