Psalms17:7
Verſ. 7. Shew thy marvellous loving kindneſs, &c.] Mirificas benignitates tuas; leſs than a marvellous mercifulneſs will not ſerve Davids turn, he was ſo hardly beſtead; ut niſi miabiliter feceris, pereo. We now alive have lived in an age of Miracles; and God hath dealt with our Land, not according to his ordinary courſe, but according to his Prerogative; by a Miracle of his Mercy have we hitherto ſubſiſted, and by a prop of his extraordinary patience.
O thou that ſaveſt, &c.] Servator ſperantiam. Choyce muſt be made in Prayer of fit Titles and Attributes of God; ſuch as may ſtrengthen faith, and quicken affection.
From thoſe that riſe up againſt them] Or, against thy right hand. The Saints are at Chriſts right hand, Pſal. 45.9. as Chriſt is at the Fathers; and he puts his holy hand betwixt them and harm.
