Matthew Poole and continuators on Psalms 69:6

6 Let not them that wait on thee , O LORD GOD of hosts, be ashamed for my sake : let not those that seek thee, be confounded for my sake, O God of Israel.

(i. e.) Thy Godly people, who relye upon thy Promises, which thou hast made to all thine in General, and to me in a special manner, wherein they also are concerned.

(i. e.) Frustrated of their just Hopes; which will make them ashamed; Either, to look up upon God, or to look upon their Enemies, when they shall Reproach them, for their Confidence in God.

Either, 1. For the sake of my sins last mentioned, let not all Good men suffer for my sins. Or, 2. Because of my sad Disappointments. For if they see me Rejected and forsaken of God, whom they have esteemed a great example of Faith, and Prayer, and all Vertue and Piety, they will be exceedingly discouraged by this Example; which will tend much to thy Dishonour and disservice▪
