In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me.
Ver. 4. In God I will praise his word] Having placed my confidence in God, I will take his bare word for my security. He hath promised to make me king, 1 Samuel 16:13, and he will not suffer his faithfulness to fail, or alter the thing that is gone out of his mouth, Psalms 89:33. The word of God cannot be broken, John 5:35. David once doubted it, but he soon took himself up for halting, Psalms 116:11 .
I will not fear what flesh can do unto me] Flesh is terminus diminuens. What can proud flesh do against the God of the spirits of all flesh? Man is but despicable flesh at the best.
