Gill's Notes on the Bible
In thee, O Lord, do I put my trust,.... The Targum is,
"in thy Word;''
:-;
let me never be put to confusion; or "be ashamed"; see the note as before.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
In thee, O Lord, do I put my trust - See the notes at Psalms 25:2. Compare Psalms 22:4-5; Psalms 31:1.
Let me never be put to confusion - Let me never be ashamed; that is, Let me not be so disappointed in the trust that I repose in thee as to have occasion to feel ashamed that I have done it.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
PSALM LXXI
The prophet, in confidence, prays for God's favour, 1-5;
recounts God's kindness to him from youth to old age, 6-9;
shows what his adversaries plot against him, and prays for
their confusion, 10-13;
promises fidelity, and determines to be a diligent preacher of
righteousness even in old age, 16-19;
takes encouragement in God's mercy, and foresees the confusion
of all his adversaries, 20-24.
NOTES ON PSALM LXXI
There is no title to this Psalm either in the Hebrew or Chaldee; and the reason is, it was written as a part of the preceding Psalm, as appears by about twenty-seven of Kennicott's and De Rossi's MSS. The Vulgate, Septuagint, AEthiopic, and Arabic, have, "A Psalm of David for the sons of Jonadab, and the first of those who were led captives." For the first, second, and third verses, see the notes on their parallels, Psalms 31:1-3.
