Psalm 138:8 Commentaries
Taste and See that the LORD is Good
God will I bless all times; his praise my mouth shall still express.
My soul shall boast in God: the meek shall hear with joyfulness.
Extol the Lord with me, let us exalt his name together.
I sought the Lord, he heard, and did me from all fears deliver.
They look'd to him, and lighten'd were: not shamed were their faces.
This poor man cry'd, God heard, and sav'd him from all his distresses.
The angel of the Lord encamps, and round encompasseth All those about that do him fear, and them delivereth.
O taste and see that God is good: who trusts in him is bless'd.
Fear God his saints: none that him fear shall be with want oppress'd.
The lions young may hungry be, and they may lack their food: But they that truly seek the Lord shall not lack any good.
O children, hither do ye come, and unto me give ear; I shall you teach to understand how ye the Lord should fear. — Psalm 34:1-11 | Metrical Psalms 1650 (MP1650) The Metrical Psalter, © British and Foreign Bible Society 2015.

Notes: Psalm 31:9 is a plea for God's mercy and presence in the midst of deep distress. The verse is a call for God to show favor and be present with the sufferer. It's a reminder that God is available and cares about us in our weakest moments. The verse lists symptoms of distress that suggest sickness, depression, and persecution. The psalmist (David) chooses to trust in God, even though his friends have abandoned him and enemies plot against him. He calls on others to be firm and brave as they choose to trust in God.
The Lord is My Shepherd Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
1 The Lord's my shepherd, I'll not want.
2 He makes me down to lie In pastures green: he leadeth me the quiet waters by.
3 My soul he doth restore again; and me to walk doth make Within the paths of righteousness, ev'n for his own name's sake.
4 Yea, though I walk in death's dark vale, yet will I fear none ill: For thou art with me; and thy rod and staff me comfort still.
5 My table thou hast furnished in presence of my foes; My head thou dost with oil anoint, and my cup overflows.
6 Goodness and mercy all my life shall surely follow me: And in God's house for evermore my dwelling-place shall be. — Psalm 23 | Metrical Psalms 1650 (MP1650) The Metrical Psalter, © British and Foreign Bible Society 2015.
