9. Hide thy face from my sins. Be at
pains not to see them, lest if thou consider them chine anger burn and I die. Blotout all mine iniquities. He repeats the prayer of the first verse with the
enlargement of it by the word all. David’s face was ashamed with looking
on his sin, and no diverting thoughts could remove it from his memory; but he
prays the Lord to do with his sin what he himself cannot. If God hide not his
face from our sin, he must hide it forever from us; and if he blot not out our
sins, he must blot our names out of his book of life.
