Deliver me from the oppression of man: so will I keep thy precepts.
Ver. 134. Deliver me from the oppressions of man] Homo homini lupus. David, besides his corruptions within, met with oppressions and persecutions without; so shall all that will live godly in Christ Jesus; let them never dream of a delicacy in religion.
So will I keep thy precepts] Not say, as those miscreants, Jeremiah 7:10, "We are delivered to do all these abominations"; but as good old Zechariah, Luke 1:74,75, Servati sumus ut serviamus, We have been served so that we may serve. We are delivered that we might serve God without fear, &c.
