Psalm 39
1. David's care of his thoughts
4. The consideration of the brevity and vanity of life
7. the reverence of God's judgments
10. and prayer, are his bridles of impatience














(10) Stroke.--See Note to Psalm 38:11.

Blow.--Margin, "conflict." A word only found here; from a root meaning rough. LXX. and Vulg. have "strength."

Calvin's last words are said to have been a reminiscence of this verse.

Verse 10. - Remove thy stroke away from me (camp. Psalm 38:11). I am consumed by the blow of thine hand; literally, by the quarrel of thine hand. But our version gives the true meaning. The "quarrel" has led the "hand" to deal the "stroke" by which the sufferer is "consumed" or "wasted away" (Kay).
