PSAS. 16. vers. 1. Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I trust.
PSAS. 16. vers. 1. Preserue me, O God: for in thee doe I trust.
This Psalm containeth the acknowledging of the Prophet his unworthiness, and showeth how all things are of God: it witnesseth the man of God his love to the Saints, his hatred of false religion, the assurance of God his providence, and his undoubted hope of life everlasting. All which things containing so many points of heavenly doctrine, ought much to provoke in us the love of the Psalm, and loving it to frequent the use of it. The Psalm seemeth to be general, and may be used at all seasons, and of all estates, as not being bound to any peculiar condition of men, or tied to any several circumstance, as are many other Psalms, containing particular matter: and therefore is it to be used as a notable meditation, which may be showed by this word Mitchtam. The first verse is the proposition of the whole, and the residue of the Psalm prosecuteth the same matter. Now to the words of the text.
