Yet. Oh! what a glorious “yet” that is. How it swims! Never was there a swimming suit like that which is made of hope. Psa_42:8. The LORD will command his lovingkindness in the daytime, and in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my life. How dear God gets to be to a gracious man in the time of trouble. Just now he...

Yet the LORD will command his lovingkindness in the daytime, and in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my life.

I will say unto God my rock,.... A name frequently given to the eternal God, Father, Son, and Spirit, Deuteronomy 32:4; [See comments on Psalms 18:2]; why hast thou forgotten me?

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy? As with a sword in my bones, mine enemies reproach me; while they say daily unto me, Where is thy God? Why art thou cast down, O my soul and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him who is the health of my countenance, and my God. Notice how the...

[As] with a sword in my bones, mine enemies reproach me,.... The reproaches of his enemies were grievous and cutting to him, as if a sword pierced through the marrow in his bones, which, being very sensitive, gives exquisite pain. There is a various reading here: some copies, as Vatablus observes, read ב, "in", or with, and others כ, "as", which...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
As with a sword in my bones, mine enemies reproach me; while they say daily unto me, Where is thy God? Rather monotonous this. “Where is thy God?” is all they can say. They are rather short of wit when they must always hang on to the same old taunt. If ever you hear of a new heresy, it is only an old heresy with a new soul put to it.

As with a sword in my bones, mine enemies reproach me; while they say daily unto me, Where is thy God? Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: For I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.

The same expostulation as in Psalms 42:5; and so is what follows, and why art thou disquieted within me? and the same argument and means are made use of to remove dejection and disquietude; hope thou in God; for I shall yet praise him; [See comments on Psalms 42:5]; to which is added a new argument, taken...
