I would have fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.
All Commentaries on Psalms 27:13 Go To Psalms 27
Augustine of Hippo
AD 430
13. "I believe to see the good things of the Lord in the land of the living" (ver. 13). And since my Lord hath first suffered these things, if I too despise the tongues of the dying ("for the mouth that lieth slayeth the soul" ), I believe to see the good things of the Lord in the land of the living, where there is no place for falsity.
