Psalm 17:6

6 Oh Dios, a ti dirijo mi oración porque sé que me responderás;
inclínate y escucha cuando oro.

Psalm 17:6 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 17:6

I have called upon thee
In prayer. This had been the constant practice of the psalmist, and he still continued in it;

for thou wilt hear me, O God;
God is a God hearing prayer; he is used to hear his people, and they have frequent experience of it, and they may be assured that whatsoever they ask according to his will, and in the name of Christ, he will hear; and such an assurance is a reason engaging the saints to a constant calling upon God, ( Psalms 116:2 ) ; and such confidence of being always heard Christ had, ( John 11:41 John 11:42 ) ;

incline thine ear unto me, [and hear] my speech;
meaning his prayer, which he now directed to him in full assurance of being heard, and is as follows.

Psalm 17:6 In-Context

4 He seguido tus mandatos,
los cuales me impidieron ir tras la gente cruel y perversa.

5 Mis pasos permanecieron en tu camino;
no he vacilado en seguirte.

6 Oh Dios, a ti dirijo mi oración porque sé que me responderás;
inclínate y escucha cuando oro.

7 Muéstrame tu amor inagotable de maravillosas maneras.
Con tu gran poder rescatas
a los que buscan refugiarse de sus enemigos.

8 Cuídame como cuidarías tus propios ojos;
escóndeme bajo la sombra de tus alas.
