Psalm 139
1. David praises God for his all-seeing providence
17. And for this infinite mercies
19. He defies the wicked
23. He prays for sincerity














(10) Even there . . .--The expressions "lead me," "hold me," are elsewhere used of the protecting and guiding providence of God (Psalm 5:8; Psalm 23:3; Psalm 27:11; Psalm 73:24). And yet the psalmist speaks here as if he were a guilty being trying to escape from the Divine notice. The truth is a profound one. Even when God discovers and overtakes those who guiltily try to hide from Him, it is to take them under His loving care.
