20. O keep my soul out of evil, anddeliver me when I fall into it. This is another version of the prayer, “Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.” Let me not be ashamed. This is the one fear which haunted the
psalmist’s mind. He trembled lest his faith should become the subject of
ridicule through the extremity of his affliction. For I put my trust inthee. And therefore the name of God would be compromised if his servants
were deserted; this the believing heart can by no means endure.
