The Treasury of David
by Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-1892)
1. Lord, how are theyincreased that trouble me!. Here is a note of
exclamation to express the wonder of woe which amazed and perplexed the
fugitive father. Alas, I see no limit to my misery, for my troubles are
enlarged! There was enough at first to sink me very low; but lo, my enemies
multiply! When Absalom, my darling, is in rebellion against me, it is enough to
break my heart; but, lo, Ahithophel has forsaken me, my faithful counselors
have turned their backs on me! Lo, my generals and soldiers have deserted my
standard! How are they increased that trouble me. Troubles always come
in flocks. Sorrow has a numerous family. Many are they that rise up againstme. Their hosts are far superior to mine! Their numbers are too great for
me to count!
