Psalms 31:7

I will be glad and rejoice in your mercy: for you have considered my trouble; you have known my soul in adversities;
Read Chapter 31

Augustine of Hippo

AD 430
8. "I will be glad, and rejoice in Thy mercy:" which doth not deceive me. "For Thou hast regarded My humiliation:" wherein Thou hast subjected me to vanity in hope. "Thou hast saved my soul from necessities" (ver. 7). Thou hast saved my soul from the necessities of fear, that with a free love it may serve Thee.

George Leo Haydock

AD 1849
Humility. Hebrew, "affliction, thou hast known the tribulations of my soul. "(St. Jerome) (Haydock) Thou hast often rescued me from my enemies; and canst thou behold my present distress without pity? (Calmet) when God knows his friend to be in misery, he does not fail to relieve him. (Berthier)

Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation - 2 Peter 1:20
