1. Hold not thy peace. Mine enemies speak; be
thou pleased to speak too. Break thy solemn silence, and silence those who
slander me. It is the cry of a man whose confidence in God is deep, and whose
communion with him is very close and bold. Note that he only asks the Lord to speak:
a word from God is all a believer needs. O God of my praise. Thou whom
my whole soul praises, be pleased to protect my honor and guard my praise. “My heart is fixed,” said he
in the former psalm; “I will
sing and give praise,” and now
he appeals to the God whom he had praised. If we take care of God’s honor he
will take care of ours.
