But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall receive me. Selah.
But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave - in contrast to the wicked, on whom 'death shall feed' eternally. "But" - literally, 'only' х 'ak (H389)], in contrast to Psalms 49:7, "None of them can by any means redeem his brother;" God, who alone can do it, will do it for me. The Spirit in David (1 Peter 1:11-12) hints at the gnawing worm of the wicked that never dieth (Psalms 49:14; Mark 9:44; Mark 9:46; Mark 9:48). Contrast Psalms 49:15, the resurrection (Hosea 13:15; Job 19:25-27).
For he shall receive me - (Psalms 73:24.)
