And now, Lord, what wait I for?
&c.] Look for, or expect, in this view of things? not long
life, since the days of man are so short, and his age as nothing;
not help from man, since he is altogether vanity; not riches and
honour, since they are such poor, fading, perishing things; but
the glories of another world, and the enjoyment of the Lord
himself, both in this and that;
my hope [is] in thee;
the psalmist now returns to himself, and comes to his right mind,
and to a right way of judging and acting; making the Lord the
object of his hope and trust, expecting all good things, grace
and glory, alone from him; and this is the hope which makes not
ashamed.
