Psalms 142:7 - John Trapp Complete Commentary

Bible Comments

Bring my soul out of prison, that I may praise thy name: the righteous shall compass me about; for thou shalt deal bountifully with me.

Ver. 7. Bring my soul out of prison] i.e. Out of this distress, wherewith I am no less straitened than if in prison.

The righteous shall compass me about] Heb. shall crown me; that is, shall encircle me, as wondering at thy goodness in my deliverance; or they shall set the crown on mine head, as the saints do likewise upon Christ's head, Son 3:11 to whom this psalm may be fitly applied all along, as above said.
