Texts -- Psalms 69:29-36 (NET)

Context
69:29 I am oppressed and suffering ! O God , deliver and protect me! 69:30 I will sing praises to God’s name ! I will magnify him as I give him thanks ! 69:31 That will please the Lord more than an ox or a bull with horns and hooves . 69:32 The oppressed look on– let them rejoice ! You who seek God , may you be encouraged ! 69:33 For the Lord listens to the needy ; he does not despise his captive people . 69:34 Let the heavens and the earth praise him, along with the seas and everything that swims in them! 69:35 For God will deliver Zion and rebuild the cities of Judah , and his people will again live in them and possess Zion. 69:36 The descendants of his servants will inherit it, and those who are loyal to him will live in it.

  • The mood of this psalm contrasts dramatically with that of Psalm 21. In this one David felt forsaken by God, and the threats of his enemies laid heavy on his heart. He evidently felt death might be close. He described his con...
  • In Book 1 we saw that all the psalms except 1, 2, 10, and 33 claimed David as their writer. It is likely that he wrote these four as well even though they do not bear his name. In Book 2 the titles identify David as the write...
  • 69:29-33 Again David asked God to deliver him (cf. v. 13). Assured of salvation he vowed to praise the Lord confident that that would please Him more than animal sacrifices. Bulls with horns and hoofs (v. 31) were mature anim...
  • The superscription of this psalm, a "memorial"or "petition,"literally means, "to bring to remembrance"(cf. Ps. 38)."Perhaps this was a note that the psalm was to be used in connection with the offerings (cf. 1 Chron. 16:4), w...

  • 3:19 Jeremiah prayed that the Lord would remember his affliction and bitterness (cf. Job 13:15).3:20-21 He himself remembered something that gave him hope.3:22 The prophet remembered that the Lord's loyal love (Heb. hesed) ne...
  • The following prayer is mainly thanksgiving for deliverance from drowning. It is not thanksgiving for deliverance from the fish. Jonah prayed it while he was in the fish. Evidently he concluded after some time in the fish's s...
