Psalms62:1

1 TRuely my soul waiteth upon God: from him cometh my salvation .

Or, Surely. This is my certain and fixed Resolution. Or, Nevertheless, as this Particle is oft rendred. So the beginning of this Psalm is abrupt, as it is in some other Psalms. This seems to be the Conclusion of a long and hard Conflict, which David had within himself, as he often had, what Course he should take to get out of his Trouble.

Heb. be silent, as it is also, Psal. 37. 7. (i. e.) Silently, quietly and Patiently, look up to God for Deliverance, and that in his time and way, without Mourning or Despair, or using indirect and sinful Practises.

I have no Hope of Deliverance, but from and by him.

Marginal references: Heb. Or, [illegible: 1+ letters] ly.; Heb. is [illegible: 1 word].
