And my tongue shall speak of thy righteousness and of thy praise all the day long. (Psalm 35:28)
Heb.
hagah. This verb conveys the idea of speaking in a low voice, as of one musing on a gentle thought. It is translated
“meditate” in
Ps. 1:2.
God’s salvation, not the psalmist’s deliverance. Contemplation of God’s goodness takes our thoughts away from ourselves.
Continually. “Faithful work is praise and prayer” (Henry van Dyke).
