Psalm 25
1. David's confidence in prayer
7. He prays for remission of sins
16. and for help in affliction














(13) Shall dwell.--Literally, shall lodge the night (comp. margin); but here, as in Psalm 49:12, with added sense of permanency.

Verse 13. - His soul shall dwell at case; rather, his soul shall dwell in bliss; i.e. he shall enjoy, while on earth, blessings of every kind. And his seed shall inherit the earth. His posterity after him shall be continued upon the earth, and shall prosper (comp. Psalm 37:11, 22, 29). There is a tendency in righteousness to "inherit the earth," only held in check by accidental and (it may be) temporary circumstances (see Butler's' Analogy,' pt. 1. ch. 3, pp. 78, 79).
