For thy servant David's sake turn not away the face of thine anointed.
Ver. 10. For thy servant David's sake] For thy covenant's sake made with him, and for thy Christ's sake, who is oft called David, as Hosea 3:5, so for the Lord's sake, Daniel 9:17 .
Turn not away the face of thine anointed] Of thy Christ; defer not his coming, or deny not my request, as 1Ki 2:16-17; 1 Kings 2:20 .
