Psalm 6:8-9 “Away from me, all you who do evil, for the LORD has heard my weeping.The LORD has heard my cry for mercy; the LORD accepts my prayer.”
[David is certain, sure, convinced of God’s faithfulness and mercy, so he can state with certainty that Jehovah has heard him and will answer. “I will call upon the Lord in the day of trouble, for he will answer me” (Psa. 86:7). He looks to the character of God, the heart of his Lord, the promises He has given and is sure of an answer in the right time and right way.]
Psalm 6:10 “All my enemies will be ashamed and dismayed; they will turn back in sudden disgrace.”
[David ends his psalm with the statement of conviction and confidence. He does not have any visible sign of help yet, but he is sure of the outcome because he knows the living God who can and does act in power.
