Gill's Notes on the Bible

But do thou for me, O God the Lord, for thy name's sake,.... The sense of the petition is, and which is a prayer of Christ as man, that the Lord God would take his part, be on his side, be present with him, work with him, help and assist him, and that for his own honour and glory, for his truth and faithfulness sake, who had promised him help and assistance, Psalms 89:21.

Because thy mercy is good, deliver thou me; or "thy kindness" g; meaning the lovingkindness of God to Christ, which he always bore to him, and was eminently and superlatively good; which he makes use of as an argument for his deliverance out of all his troubles, and from death itself; see Psalms 69:14.

g חסדך "benignitas tua", Musculus, Junius & Tremellius, Piscator.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

But do thou for me, O God the Lord, for thy name’s sake - That is, Interpose for me; exert thy power in my behalf. The phrase “for thy name’s sake” implies that the motive which prompted him was a desire that God might be honored. It was not primarily or mainly for his own happiness; it was that God might be glorified, that his character might be illustrated, that his plans might be accomplished. Compare the notes at Daniel 9:18-19.

Because thy mercy is good - That is, It is the characteristic of mercy to do good; to show kindness.

Deliver thou me - He prays that God would “manifest” himself as he really was, as a God of mercy.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 109:21. But do thou for me — While they use horrible imprecations against me, and load me with their curses, act thou for me, and deliver me from their maledictions. While they curse, do thou bless. This verse is a farther proof of the correctness of the interpretation given above.
