Some understand it chiefly of the sick man recovered. He looketh upon men; That is, the sick man looketh upon those about him;1 and saith, I have sinned and perverted that which is right. As if being raised from his sick bed, he should raise himself up, to give glory to God by confessing and acknowledging before men, that he had sinned in perverting the rule of righteousness given him to walk by, and had found by dear-bought experience, that it profited him not. The Italian translator saith, He afterwards ⟨p. 445⟩shall turn himself toward man, and say, &c. That is,2 he shall preach Gods grace to sinful man, and propose himself an example of it, magnifying the grace of God to him, and acknowledging his own vileness. They who insist upon this exposition render the 28th verse, as the continued speech of the sick man, making it out to this effect, I have sinned and perverted that which •as right, yet he hath delivered, or will deliver my soul from going into the pit, and my life shall see the light.
