But I [am] poor and needy, etc.] In (<194017>Psalm 40:17) it follows, yet “the Lord thinketh on me”; instead of which it is here, (see Gill on “<194017>Psalm 40:17”); make haste unto me, O God; which repeats for sense the same petition as in (<197101>Psalm 71:1); thou [art] my help and my deliverer; O Lord, make no tarrying; in (<194017>Psalm 40:17) it is, “O my God”.
