Micah 7:7 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Therefore, since times are so calamitous, and all sorts of men are so perfidious, since no sure comfort or relief from those that are nearest relations, and should be dearest friends, I will look; as one set in a watch-tower looks round about, and diligently observes all that stirreth; so will the prophet, speaking in the person of the faithful, the Israel of God; so did they who in Israel and Judah feared the Lord and walked with him; unto the Lord, the God of mercy, power, truth, and wisdom, who can and will help. I will wait for, though he do not presently appear for me, saith the church, I will with patience expect, the God of my salvation; who only can, and who graciously hath promised to save his church. My God will hear me; he doth hear my cry, and will deliver me.
