Save, LORD: let the king hear us when we call.
Ver. 9. Save, Lord] A short but pithy prayer: Quam multa quam paucis.
Let the king hear us] They beg of God that the king may hear them, so as to govern and defend them in equity and tranquillity; or, Respondent Rex (so Aben Ezra rendereth it), Let the king say Amen to our prayers to thee and our requests to him.
