Consider my trouble Namely, compassionately and effectually, so as to bring me out of it; thou that liftest me up from the gates of death From the brink or mouth of the grave, into which I was dropping, being as near death as a man is to the city who is come to the very gates of it. That I may show forth thy praise in the gates In the great assemblies which were usually held in the gates of cities; of the daughter of Zion Of the people who live in, or belong to, or meet together in Zion. These gates of Zion he elegantly opposes to the gates of death, and declares, if he be brought off from the latter, he will go into the former. Cities, it must be observed, are, as it were, mothers to their people, and people are commonly called their daughters. So the daughters of Egypt, Jeremiah 46:11; and of Edom, Lamentations 4:21; and of Tyre, Psalms 45:12; are put for the people of those places. I will rejoice in thy salvation Namely, with spiritual joy and thanksgiving; else it would be no fit motive to be used to God in prayer.
