I have declared my ways, and thou heardst me: teach me thy statutes.
I haue declared my wayes, and thou heardst mee: teach mee thy statutes.
David here protesteth that God hath given ear unto his particular matters, to wit, when as he was perplexed and full of sorrow, he then called upon God. Lo what this word, Way, in the Hebrew meaneth, where it is said, I have acknowledged my ways, and thou answeredst me: to wit, heardst me. Hereupon he desireth that God would teach him his Statutes: to wit, that he would show him the right rule to live well. Here we are to note, that God yieldeth his consent even unto us, and that he will assist us in all our several needs. We see that our Lord Jesus hath taught us too ask our daily bread, which importeth all that concerneth this transitory life. Even so when we have any thing to do or too treat off, God granteth unto us this privilege and licence too come urito him: yea if we should steppe on but one pace, or but remove our hand, we may come unto God, beseeching him to direct and conduct us.
