Bible Comments

Shew me a token for good; that they which hate me may see it, and be ashamed: because thou, LORD, hast holpen me, and comforted me.

Show me a token for good - do something so decisive in my favour as plainly to indicate that thou art on my side. It is not a miraculous sign that he craves, but an act of deliverance.

That they which hate me may see it, and be ashamed - being disappointed in their hope of my destruction.
