Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins— Though our sins are more in number than the hairs of our head; yet some there are which stand distinguished by an uncommon guilt, and will always be present to our minds, whenever we approach the throne of grace for pardon. These we should particularly lament; against these we should particularly pray, when we seek to God for strength and assistance. In this strain the holy Psalmist continues his devotions. Keep back thy servant also, &c. Bishop Sherlock. Mudge renders the last clause, And clean from great defection: and Fenwick, And be pure from great offences.
