Psalm 40:1 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 40:1

I waited patiently for the Lord
Or "waiting I waited" {i}; which denotes continuance, constancy, and patience; and which Christ exercised in the garden, when he submitted himself entirely to the will of God; and on the cross, when he continued in sure hope and firm expectation of his help and assistance, though he was for a while forsaken by him; see ( Isaiah 50:7-9 ) ;

and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry;
both in the garden, by delivering him from fear of death; and on the cross, by upholding, helping, and assisting him, by carrying him through his sufferings and death, and raising him from the dead; see ( Isaiah 49:8 ) ( Hebrews 5:7 ) .

Psalm 40:1 In-Context

1 Puse en el SE脩OR toda mi esperanza;茅l se inclin贸 hacia m铆 y escuch贸 mi clamor.
2 Me sac贸 de la fosa de la muerte,del lodo y del pantano;puso mis pies sobre una roca,y me plant贸 en terreno firme.
3 Puso en mis labios un c谩ntico nuevo,un himno de alabanza a nuestro Dios.Al ver esto, muchos tuvieron miedoy pusieron su confianza en el SE脩OR.
4 Dichoso el que pone su confianza en el SE脩ORy no recurre a los id贸latrasni a los que adoran dioses falsos.
5 Muchas son, SE脩OR mi Dios,las maravillas que t煤 has hecho.No es posible enumerartus bondades en favor nuestro.Si quisiera anunciarlas y proclamarlas,ser铆an m谩s de lo que puedo contar.
