"But I am poor and needy; yet the Lord thinketh upon me: thou art my help and my deliverer; make no tarrying, O my God."
Commentary
Gill's Exposition
But I am poor and needy,.... As Christ was literally, Co2 8:9 ; and in a spiritual sense, when deserted by his Father, forsaken by his disciples, and surrounded by
his enemies; and had the sins of his people, the curse of the law, and the wrath of God upon him; yet the Lord thinketh upon me; thinketh good for me, as the Targum; or thinks highly of me; has me in great esteem though despised of men, and in such a suffering state; thou art my help and my deliverer; he believed he should have what he prayed for, Psa 40:13 ; see Isa 50:7 ; make no tarrying, O my God; which is a repetition of the request in Psa 40:13 .
