Psalm 41
David on a sick bed lays hold on God's promise and prays
for mercy, ver. 1-4. Complains of the pride and malice of his
enemies, ver. 5-9. Flees to God for succor, and praises him, ver.
10, 13. To the chief musician, A psalm of David.
Verse 3. Make his bed - Give him ease and comfort, which sick men
receive by the help of those who turn and stir up their bed, to
make it soft and easy for them.
Verse 4. Heal - The soul is said to be healed, when it is pardoned and
purged. For - For I acknowledge that I have sinned.
Verse 6. His heart - Even when he is with me, and pretends hearty
affection, his heart is devising mischief against me.
Verse 9. Yea - These words were literally fulfilled in David, and yet the
Holy Ghost looked farther in them, even to Christ and Judas, in
whom they received a fuller accomplishment. Lift up - A phrase
implying injury, joined with insolency and contempt; taken from
an unruly horse, which kicks at him that owns and feeds him.
Verse 10. Requite - Punish them for their wicked practices; which being
now a magistrate, he was obliged to do.
Verse 11. By this - Because hitherto thou hast supported me, and
prolonged my days to the disappointment of their hopes.
Verse 12. Settest - Or, hast confirmed me in thy presence, under thine
eye and special care: to minister unto thee, as a king over thy
people. And in regard of his posterity, the kingdom was
established for ever. 13. Amen - Signifies an hearty assent and
approbation, and withal an earnest desire of the thing, to which it
is annexed. And as the psalms are divided into five books, so each
of them is closed with this word; the first here: the second, chap.
lxxii, 19, the third, chap. lxxxix, 52, the fourth, chap. cvi, 48, the
last in the end of chap. 1l, 6, the doubling of the word shews the
fervency of his spirit, in this work of praising God.
