Psalms 18:3

I will call upon the LORD, [who is worthy] to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.

Ver. 3. I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised] Or, is the proper object of praises, because he is good and doth good, Psalms 119:68. David vows to praise him,

1. By loving him entirely.

2. By trusting in him steadfastly, Psalms 18:1

3. By calling upon him continually, here, and Psalms 116:2,3, which psalm is very like to this (in the beginning especially) both for matter and method.

So shall I be saved, &c.] He hath often proved the power of prayer, especially when he came ready prepared to praise God for the return of prayer; and thence he is bold to promise himself all good.
