Psalms 39:2

I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, even from good; and my sorrow was stirred.
All Commentaries on Psalms 39:2 Go To Psalms 39

Augustine of Hippo

AD 430
"And my sorrow was stirred up again" (ver. 2). Inasmuch as I had found in silence a kind of respite from a certain "sorrow," that had been inflicted upon me by those who cavilled at my words, and found fault with me: and that sorrow that was caused by the cavillers, had ceased indeed; but when "I held my peace even from good, my sorrow was stirred up again." I began to be more grieved at having refrained from saying what I ought to have said, than I had before been grieved by having said what I ought not. "And my sorrow was stirred up again. "
