Psalmen 71:14 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 71:14

But I will hope continually
For deliverance and salvation from present outward troubles, for; more grace here and glory hereafter: it is the excellency of the grace of hope to be exercised in times of affliction and distress, and with Abraham to believe in hope against hope; and then it is that this grace is eminently and remarkably useful: it is an anchor to the soul when in distress, which keeps it firm and steadfast; and an helmet, which covers the head in the day of battle; in the exercise of which the believer glories in tribulation: it is an abiding grace, and should be continually exercised by those that have it, which is to abound in it; but this must be through the power of the Holy Ghost, ( Romans 15:13 ) ;

and will yet praise thee more and more;
or "will add to all thy praise" {b}; to former praises and thanksgivings, fresh ones, as his mercies were renewed to him, and he was daily loaded with benefits.

Psalmen 71:14 In-Context

12 O God, wees niet verre van mij; mijn God! haast U tot mijn hulp.

13 Laat hen beschaamd worden, laat hen verteerd worden, die mijn ziel tegen zijn; laat hen met smaad en schande overdekt worden, die mijn kwaad zoeken.

14 Doch ik zal geduriglijk hopen, en zal al Uw lof nog groter maken.

15 Mijn mond zal Uw gerechtigheid vertellen, den gansen dag Uw heil; hoewel ik de getallen niet weet.

16 Ik zal heengaan in de mogendheden des Heeren HEEREN; ik zal Uw gerechtigheid vermelden, de Uwe alleen.
