I cried unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue.
I cried unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue - literally, 'an extolling (of Him was) under my tongue,' implying fullness of praise (Psalms 10:7). A store of praise being conceived as under the tongue, whence a portion might be taken on all occasions. The sense is, 'scarcely had I cried unto Him when, by delivering me, He gave me abundant reason to extol Him' (Psalms 34:6).
