Psalm 30
1. David praises God for his deliverance
4. He exhorts others to praise him by example of God's dealings with him














(8) I cried to thee.--The very words of "this utter agony of prayer" are given. But it is better to keep the futures in Psalm 30:8, instead of translating them as preterites, and make the quotation begin here. So Symmachus, "Then I said, I will cry to thee, O Lord," &c

Verse 8. -

1 cried to thee, O Lord; and unto thee I made supplication (comp. 2 Samuel 24:17; 1 Chronicles 21:17). The part of his prayer most honourable to David is not recorded by himself, but by the historians. He tells us of his secret wrestlings with God, his complaints and expostulations - his cries and pleadings as they remained in his memory; he passes over the desire to die for his people, which the historians put on record.
