Psalms 116:2

Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon [him] as long as I live.

Ver 2. Because he hath inclined his ear] As loth to lose any part of my prayer, though never so weakly uttered; therefore be shall have my custom; Psalms 65:2, "O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come."

As long as I live] Heb. In my days, that is, say some, while I have a day to live. Others sense it thus, in the time of my affliction, confer Psa 137:7 Lam 1:21 which by the word days he noteth to be of long continuance.
