Verses 11-12...
By this I know that You delight in me:
my enemy will not shout in triumph over me.
But You have upheld me because of my integrity,
and set me in Your presence forever.
This psalm of lament is written from the perspective of one who is suffering an illness; it is his prayer for God's help and vindication, based on his consideration of the poor. The Psalmist testifies of God's faithfulness to deliver him, protect him, and sustain him despite the malice of his enemies and the betrayal of his friends.
The Psalmist's God is my God today! He delights in me, He upholds me, He invites me into His presence ... and all because of Christ, the Son of David!
