Psaume 119:76

Psaume 119:76 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 119:76

Let, I pray thee, thy merciful kindness be for my comfort,
&c.] Shown in the provision and promise of a Saviour; in the forgiveness of sins through him; a discovery and application of which yields comfort under afflictions;

according to thy word unto servant;
a word of promise, in which he had assured him of his love, grace, mercy, and kindness; and that he would continue it to him, and comfort him with it: to make such a promise, and show such favour, was an instance of condescending grace to him, who was but his servant, and unworthy of his regard.

Psaume 119:76 In-Context

74 Ceux qui te craignent me verront et se réjouiront, car je m'attends à ta parole.
75 Je sais, ô Éternel, que tes jugements ne sont que justice, et que tu m'as affligé selon ta fidélité.
76 Oh! que ta bonté me console, comme tu l'as promis à ton serviteur.
77 Que tes compassions viennent sur moi, et je vivrai; car ta loi fait mon plaisir.
78 Que les orgueilleux soient confus, qui m'oppriment sans sujet! Moi, je méditerai sur tes commandements.
