16. A F M I W C U G A T L S S M
Not upon a creature, on idols and images, on angels or saints departed; but upon God. In his time of trouble, for salvation and deliverance from enemies; who is able to save. This is to be understood of calling upon God in prayer (as Psalm 55:17), explains it, and the Targum here renders it. Though sometimes invocation of the name of God takes in the whole of divine worship.
“And the Lord shall save me”: Which confidence was founded partly upon his promise to deliver such that call upon him in the day of trouble (Psalm 50:15). And partly upon his power, whose hand is not shortened that it cannot save. The Targum is, “the Word of the Lord shall redeem me.”
David has left his enemy in the capable hands of the Lord and he has turned to spend all his time worshipping God. He is giving us good advice here. Stop whining about those lost and go to the Lord. The Lord will not only save us, but will heal our memories of the traitors we once called friends.
