{Note:
RBT says this Psalm explains what happened to David between I Samuel
Chapters 29 and 30 - (Reversionism, Rebound, Back in Fellowship)}
{Verses
1-2: 1st Strophe - 1st 5 lines - David Reaps what David Sows}
1~~{Title}
To the Chief Musician
A
Psalm of David.
'Until
when'/'How long'
{Av A-naaa (sp) - a lamentation in Hebrew poetry}
will
You 'forget me'/'not remember me', O Jehovah/God?
Forever
?
{David was appointed the Body Guard of Achish forever . . .}
'Until
when'/'How long'
{Av A-naaa (sp) - a lamentation in Hebrew poetry}
will
You be caused to hide your face from me?
{meaning 'caused to be in great displeasure with me'}
{Note:
David has been in Philistia under the protection of Achish, kind of
Philistia. David has been lying to Achish and killing Philistines
while under the protection of Achish. Now the Philistines are going
up against King Saul. But the other Philistine city-state rulers did
not want David and his men to fight with the Philistines against the
Jews and David is sent back as the battle is about to happen.}
2~~'Until
when'/'How long' {Av A-naaa (sp)}
shall
I 'line up worries' {shiyth `etsah}
in
my soul (?) . . .
{Constant worry and anxiety was part of his self-induced misery in
reversionism - he sowed lies and the murder of Arab women and
children - and he reaped worry}
having
'maximum misery' {yagown}
in
my 'right lobe'/heart . . .
day
by day . . .
'Until
when'/'How long' {Av A-naaa (sp)}
will
my enemy {Saul} be exalted over me {David}?
{Verses
3-4: Next Strophe - 4 lines of Hebrew Poetry
David Repents and Back under God's Grace}
3~~'Have
regard for me'/'Have respect for me'
{nabat - Hiphil imperative - commanding that God have respect for
him! is now back in God's plan and claiming a promise of God to
forgive him}
and
'listen to me'/'answer me' {`anah},
O
Jehovah/God my 'Elohiym/Godhead.
Cause
to enlighten my eyes
{means 'cause me to understand doctrine'},
lest
I sleep the sleep of death
{die the sin unto death in reversionism} . . .
4~~Lest
my enemy {Saul} keep on saying,
"I
have overcome/'prevailed against' {yakol} him."
"Lest
those hostile to me
celebrate/'dance
around in a circle'/'party at my expense' {giyl}
when
I am tottering/unstable {mowt}."
{Verses
5-6: 3rd Strophe: Grace Deliverance: David Reaps what God Sows}
5~~But
in Your grace {checed}
I
have trusted
{batach - non-meritorious repentance - also verb for faith rest}
{now on I want to reap what YOU sow Lord}.
My
heart/'right lobe'
will
celebrate/'dance around in a circle' {giyl}
Your
deliverance {y@shuw`ah}.
6~~I
will 'sing in celebration' {shiyr}
unto
Jehovah/God.
Because
He has compensated me
in
grace {gamal - reaping what God sows, back in fellowship}.
