Psalm 57
1. David in prayer fleeing unto God, complains of his dangerous case
7. He encourages himself to praise God














(8) My glory.--See Note, Psalm 7:5.

I myself will awake early.--Perhaps, rather, I will rouse the dawn. Comp Ovid. Met. xi. 597, where the cock is said evocare Auroram; and Milton, still more nearly:

"Oft listening how the hounds and horn,

Cheerily rouse the slumbering morn"--L'Allegro.)

Verse 8. - Awake up, my glory; i.e. "my soul" (comp. Psalm 16:9; Psalm 30:12). The psalmist stirs his soul to earnest, heartfelt devotion. Awake, psaltery and harp; i.e. awake, my musical instruments and my musical powers, which have slept, as it were, while I was in affliction. I myself will awake early; or, "will awaken the dawn" (comp. Ovid, 'Metaph.,' 11:597, "Vigil ales evocat auroram;" and Milton, "Cheerly rouse the slumbering morn."
