Jump to Previous Ear Inclined Live Prayer Request TurnedJump to Next Ear Inclined Live Prayer Request TurnedPsalm 116 1. The psalmist professes his love and duty to God for his deliverance12. He studies to be thankful (2) If we take translation (1) of Psalm 116:1 this verse will state the ground of the longing to pray. "I have longed for Jehovah to hear me now, for He, as in past times, inclines His ear to me." The latter clause of the verse offers some difficulty. The literal rendering of the text, given by the LXX. and Vulg., is, "and in my days I will call (for help). But there is none." 2Kings 20:19 does not, as suggested, confirm the explanation "all the days of my life." It would seem more natural to take the text as an equivalent of the common phrase "in the day when I call" (Psalm 56:10; Psalm 102:3, &c), and render the verse: For He inclines His ear to me, And that in the day when I call. Verse 2. - Because he hath inclined his ear unto me (compare the expression of Hezekiah in Isaiah 37:17, "Incline thine ear, O Lord, and hear"). Therefore will I call upon him as long as I live; literally, in my days - another expression attributed to Hezekiah in the history (Isaiah 39:8). Lifelong gratitude and praise are promised by Hezekiah to God in Isaiah 38:20.Parallel Commentaries ...
