Notes on verse:
In another place (in Psalm 119:164), the psalmist says that he engaged in acts of devotion seven times in a day. Daniel prayed three times a day (Dan. 6:10). David went, in his troubles, before God evening, morning, and mid-day, in solemn, earnest prayer. So Paul, in a time of great distress, gave himself on three set occasions to earnest prayer for deliverance.
“And cry aloud”: Denoting the distress he was in, the fervency of his prayer, and the importunity of it.
“And he shall hear my voice”: This he might be assured of, from the general character of God, as a God hearing prayer, and from his own special and particular experience of the truth of it, and from the promises made unto him.
David in a sense is saying, I will pray without ceasing and God will hear and answer my prayer.
