Psalm 23.4. Thy Rod, and thy Staff, they comfort me.

:75p. 23–24

THIS Psalm St. Bernard calls a noble and illustrious Psalm. The Jews did use to repeat this Psalm when they sate down to their meat. In it David sets forth two things: His Experience, and his Confidence: His Confidence, in the first and last verses: In the first verse; The Lord is my Shepherd, therefore I shall ⟨p. 24⟩not want. In the last verse; Surely that goodness and mercy shall follow me, all the days of my life; here is David's Confidence: His Faith was risen up into a great degree of confidence. But that which I shall speak to is, of David's Experience, in the words that I have read; Thy Rod, and thy Staff, they comfort me.
