Psalms 13 · Geneva Bible Notes (1599)

"To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David." How long wilt thou forget me, O LORD? (a) for ever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me? (a) He declares that his afflictions lasted a long time, and that his faith did not waver. Psalms 13:2

How long shall I take (b) counsel in my soul, [having] sorrow in my heart daily? how long shall mine enemy be exalted over me? (b) Changing my purposes as the sick man does his place. Psalms 13:4

Lest mine enemy say, I have (c) prevailed against him; [and] those that trouble me rejoice when I am moved. (c) Which might turn to God's dishonour: if he did not defend his. Psalms 13:5

But I have trusted in thy (d) mercy; my heart shall rejoice in thy salvation. (d) The mercy of God is the cause of our salvation. Psalms 13:6

I will sing unto the LORD, because he hath (e) dealt bountifully with me. (e) Both by the benefits past and by others to come.
