span data-lang="lat" data-trans="jvl" data-ref="psa.119.1" class="versetxt"> Canticum graduum. [Ad Dominum cum tribularer clamavi,
et exaudivit me.
Domine, libera animam meam a labiis iniquis
et a lingua dolosa.
Quid detur tibi, aut quid apponatur tibi
ad linguam dolosam?
Sagitt� potentis acut�,
cum carbonibus desolatoriis.
Heu mihi, quia incolatus meus prolongatus est!
habitavi cum habitantibus Cedar;
multum incola fuit anima mea.
Cum his qui oderunt pacem eram pacificus;
cum loquebar illis, impugnabant me gratis.]

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Let, I pray thee, thy merciful kindness be for my comfort,.... Shown in the provision and promise of a Saviour; in the forgiveness of sins through him; a discovery and application of which yields comfort under afflictions;
according to thy word unto servant; a word of promise, in which he had assured him of his love, grace, mercy, and kindness; and that he would continue it to him, and comfort him with it: to make such a promise, and show such favour, was an instance of condescending grace to him, who was but his servant, and unworthy of his regard.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Let, I pray thee, thy merciful kindness be for my comfort - Margin, as in Hebrew, “to comfort me.” The word rendered merciful-kindness means mercy, favor, grace, kindness; and the idea is, that all his consolation - all that he expected or desired - must be derived from mere favor; from the goodness of God. He had no source of comfort in himself, and he had no claim on God for comfort. It was through mercy alone that he could have happiness of any kind.
According to thy word ... - See the notes at Psalms 119:25.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Psalms 119:76. Thy merciful kindness — Let me derive my comfort and happiness from a diffusion of thy love and mercy, חסדך chasdecha, thy exuberant goodness, through my soul.
