AS the Prophet hath told us before, that the only refuge the King had, was to ask counsel at Gods mouth: so now he shows that it was not in vain, because he received such comfort and consolation from him as his heart desired.

1By this example we are admonished, that if we seek relief from the Lord, by discharging all our cares into his bosom, we shall never be left succourless. And albeit such Prophets, as Isaiah was, are not always to be had in the world, yet will he not fail to meet those that wait for his help in due season, and with such means as shall be answerable to their necessities.
