Psalms 143:7-12 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

Here are the same hopes, the same confidences, and the same acts of faith, which all the other parts of the believer's supplications carry with them, that the issue shall be prosperous. And to those who view Christ as the foundation on which those hopes are built, the issue will never be doubtful. Jesus hath said, heaven and earth shall pass away; but my word shall not pass away, Matthew 24:35.

Psalms 143:7-12

7 Hear me speedily, O LORD: my spirit faileth: hide not thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.

8 Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning; for in thee do I trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul unto thee.

9 Deliver me, O LORD, from mine enemies: I flee unto thee to hide me.

10 Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.

11 Quicken me, O LORD, for thy name's sake: for thy righteousness' sake bring my soul out of trouble.

12 And of thy mercy cut off mine enemies, and destroy all them that afflict my soul: for I am thy servant.
