SEV Biblia, Chapter 38:15
Porque a ti, oh SEÑOR, he esperado; tú responderás, SEÑOR Dios mío.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Psalms 37:15
Verse 15. In thee, O Lord, do I hope ] I have no helper but thee. Thou wilt hear, O Lord my God. ] Thou art eternal in thy compassions, and wilt hear the prayer of a penitent soul. In the printed copies of the Hebrew text we have yhla ynda Adonai Elohai, Lord my God; but, instead of ynda Adonai, one hundred and two of Kennicott's and De Rossi's MSS. read hwhy Yehovah. As this word is never pronounced by the Jews, and they consider it dreadfully sacred, in reading, wherever it occurs, they pronounce ynda Adonai; and we may well suppose that Jewish scribes, in writing out copies of the sacred Scriptures, would as naturally write Adonai for Yehovah, as they would in reading supply the former for the latter.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 12-22 - Wicked men hate goodness, even when they benefit by it. David, in the complaints he makes of his enemies, seems to refer to Christ. But ou enemies do us real mischief only when they drive us from God and ou duty. The true believer's trouble will be made useful; he will learn to wait for his God, and will not seek relief from the world or himself The less we notice the unkindness and injuries that are done us, the more we consult the quiet of our own minds. David's troubles were the chastisement and the consequence of his transgressions, whilst Chris suffered for our sins and ours only. What right can a sinner have to yield to impatience or anger, when mercifully corrected for his sins David was very sensible of the present workings of corruption in him Good men, by setting their sorrow continually before them, have bee ready to fall; but by setting God always before them, they have kep their standing. If we are truly penitent for sin, that will make u patient under affliction. Nothing goes nearer to the heart of believer when in affliction, than to be under the apprehension of God' deserting him; nor does any thing come more feelingly from his hear than this prayer, "Be not far from me." The Lord will hasten to hel those who trust in him as their salvation __________________________________________________________________
