Psalms 130

Psalms 130:1

THe depths] that is to say, as out of an abisse of evils and dangers; or, out of a deep feeling of my sins, which without thy grace would sink me in dispaire.

Psalms 130:3

Shouldest mark] that is to say, if thou shouldest cause them to come in judgement against me, and shouldest examine them according to the rigor of thy law.

Psalms 130:4

That thou mayest] that is to say, thou art gracious unto men, not to nourish them up in their wickednesse, through indulgencie and impunity, but to give them occasion, and to move them inwardly by thy spirit, to respect thy mercy, and so to yeeld unto thee voluntary service; which would be impossible for them to doe without the spirit of grace, which God granteth to none, but those whom he hath received into grace by the remission of sins; without which, every work is contaminate, and unacceptable to God, 1 Kings 8:40. Psal. 85. 9.

Psalms 130:6

More then] more fervently then those who tired by long watching in the night, doe desire the comming of the day, that they might thereby be relieved and take their rest.

Psalms 130:7

Plenteos] hee redeemeth man from innumerable sins, through his mercy which is infinite.
