Psalms 119:141
_ _ The pious, however despised of men, are distinguished in God’s sight by a regard for His law. |
Psalms 119:141
_ _ Here is, 1. David pious and yet poor. He was a man after God's own heart, one whom the King of kings did delight to honour, and yet small and despised in his own account and in the account of many others. Men's excellency cannot always secure them from contempt; nay, it often exposes them to the scorn of others and always makes them low in their own eyes. God has chosen the foolish things of the world, and it has been the common lot of his people to be a despised people. 2. David poor and yet pious, small and despised for his strict and serious godliness, yet his conscience can witness for him that he did not forget God's precepts. He would not throw off his religion, though it exposed him to contempt, for he knew that was designed to try his constancy. When we are small and despised we have the more need to remember God's precepts, that we may have them to support us under the pressures of a low condition. |
Psalms 119:141
I [am] (c) small and despised: [yet] do not I forget thy precepts.
(c) This is the true trial to praise God in adversity. |
