This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





Neither have I gone back, i.e. not turned aside to any crooked or sinful path or course of life, human infirmity excepted.



I have esteemed, Heb. I have hid, or laid it up, as men do their best treasures, or what they most love and value. The phrase notes a high estimation of it, a hearty affection to it, and a diligent care to preserve it.



My necessary food, or my appointed food, or my daily portion, i.e. that food or provision which is necessary for the support of my life, as this word is used, Gen_47:22 Pro_30:8 31:15, which is more prized and desired than all the riches in the world.
