Psalms 24:10-20

10 universae viae Domini misericordia et veritas requirentibus testamentum eius et testimonia eius

11 propter nomen tuum Domine et propitiaberis peccato meo multum est enim

12 quis est homo qui timet Dominum legem statuet ei in via quam elegit

13 anima eius in bonis demorabitur et semen ipsius hereditabit terram

14 firmamentum est Dominus timentibus eum et testamentum ipsius ut manifestetur illis

15 oculi mei semper ad Dominum quoniam ipse evellet de laqueo pedes meos

16 respice in me et miserere mei quia unicus et pauper sum ego

17 tribulationes cordis mei multiplicatae sunt de necessitatibus meis erue me

18 vide humilitatem meam et laborem meum et dimitte universa delicta mea

19 respice inimicos meos quoniam multiplicati sunt et odio iniquo oderunt me

20 custodi animam meam et erue me non erubescam quoniam speravi in te

Psalms 24:10-20 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO PSALM 24

\\<>\\. This psalm is thought by some of the Jewish writers {d} to have been wrote when the ark was brought from the house of Obededom to the city of David, and put into the place prepared for it by him, 2Sa 6:17; to which reference is supposed to be had in Ps 24:7-10; or after that David had built an altar in the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite, and had knowledge of the hill Moriah, as the place where the sanctuary was to be built; called the hill of the Lord, and his holy place, Ps 24:3; however, it was certainly written by David, under the inspiration of the spirit of God; and is a prophecy of Christ, and of the Gospel church, and describes the members of it. {d} Aben Ezra & Kimchi.
