Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O you my God, save your servant that trusts in you.
All Commentaries on Psalms 86:2 Go To Psalms 86
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
I am holy. I am by my office and profession dedicated to thy service, (Challoner) as a Levite, (Calmet) or a member of the true Church. (Haydock)
He may also speak in the person of Christ, who prays for us and in us. (Du Hamel)
Syriac and Arabic read, "thou art good. "(Calmet)
Our necessities, firm purposes of leading a virtuous life, and confidence in God, move him to show mercy. (Worthington)
