[Because of] his strength will I wait upon thee: for God [is] my defence.
Ver. 9. Because of his strength will I wait on thee] The stronger Saul is the more will I adhere to thee. Or thus, His strength will I reserve to thee; that is, I will turn him over to thee, who act far stronger, to take an order with him; to put a hook into his nose, and a bridle into his jaws, and to bring me at length to the kingdom.
For God is my defence] Heb. my high place; therefore what need I fear him, or his emissaries.
