14 Ich aber will beständig harren und all dein Lob vermehren.

Psalm 71:14 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 71:14

But I will hope continually
For deliverance and salvation from present outward troubles, for; more grace here and glory hereafter: it is the excellency of the grace of hope to be exercised in times of affliction and distress, and with Abraham to believe in hope against hope; and then it is that this grace is eminently and remarkably useful: it is an anchor to the soul when in distress, which keeps it firm and steadfast; and an helmet, which covers the head in the day of battle; in the exercise of which the believer glories in tribulation: it is an abiding grace, and should be continually exercised by those that have it, which is to abound in it; but this must be through the power of the Holy Ghost, ( Romans 15:13 ) ;

and will yet praise thee more and more;
or "will add to all thy praise" {b}; to former praises and thanksgivings, fresh ones, as his mercies were renewed to him, and he was daily loaded with benefits.

Psalm 71:14 In-Context

12 O Gott, sei nicht fern von mir; mein Gott, eile zu meiner Hilfe!

13 Laß beschämt werden, laß vergehen, die wider meine Seele sind! Laß mit Hohn und Schande bedeckt werden, die mein Unglück suchen!

14 Ich aber will beständig harren und all dein Lob vermehren.

15 Mein Mund soll erzählen deine Gerechtigkeit, den ganzen Tag deine Rettung; denn ich weiß sie nicht zu zählen.

16 Ich werde kommen mit den Machttaten des Herrn Jehova, werde gedenken deiner Gerechtigkeit, deiner allein.
