But I will always hope
The psalmist begins with a declaration of unwavering hope. The Hebrew word for "hope" here is "yachal," which conveys a sense of waiting with expectation and trust. This is not a passive hope but an active, living hope that is rooted in faith. In the context of the psalm, this hope is directed towards God, reflecting a deep trust in His character and promises. Historically, the Israelites often found themselves in situations that required them to hope in God's deliverance, whether in times of exile or oppression. This hope is a cornerstone of the believer's life, encouraging us to look beyond present circumstances to the faithfulness of God.

and will praise You
The act of praising God is a central theme throughout the Psalms. The Hebrew word "halal" is used here, which means to boast or to celebrate. This is not just a verbal acknowledgment but an expression of the heart's overflow of gratitude and reverence. Praise is both a response to God's past faithfulness and an anticipation of His future acts. In the historical context, praise was often expressed through song and music, forming a vital part of Israel's worship. For the believer, praise is a powerful tool that shifts focus from the temporal to the eternal, reinforcing faith and hope.

more and more
The phrase "more and more" suggests an increasing, progressive action. The Hebrew root "yasaph" implies adding or continuing to do something. This reflects the psalmist's commitment to not only maintain but to grow in his expression of hope and praise. It speaks to the dynamic nature of a relationship with God, where one's faith and worship are continually deepening. In the life of a believer, this can be seen as a call to spiritual growth and maturity, where one's capacity to hope and praise expands with each experience of God's grace and mercy. Historically, this reflects the journey of faith that the people of God have always been on, moving from glory to glory as they walk with Him.

Verses 14-24. - Regarding his prayers as heard, and their fulfilment as certain, the psalmist now betakes himself to praise and thanksgiving, He will never cease to hope; he will praise God more and more (ver. 14). He will spend the whole day in telling of God's righteousness and salvation (ver. 15). The mighty acts of the Lord shall form his theme, together with the righteousness of God, and of none other (ver. 16). As God has enabled him to declare his praise in the past (ver. 17), so he trusts to be still upheld and enabled to proclaim the same to the new generation (ver. 18). God's righteousness is "very high," and there is none like him (ver. 19). When he. brings men into trouble, it is only to "turn again and comfort them" (vers. 20, 21). In conclusion, the writer promises that his hymns of praise shall not only be said, but sung, and accompanied with the melody of music (ver. 22). His lips and soul shall both rejoice together (ver. 23); and the praise of God shall employ his tongue without ceasing (ver. 24). Verse 14. - But I will hope continually; literally, but as for me, I will hope, etc. The phrase, "as for me," almost always marks a transition. And will yet praise thee more and more; literally, I will add to all thy praise; i.e. "I will add to all my past praises of thee further praises in the future."
