Commentaire sur Les Psaumes 19:15

be acceptable To appease and placate You.

May the words of my mouth be acceptable: – i.e. what I say before Thee with my mouth,

and the meditation of my heart in Thy sight: – And what I do not say with my mouth, but think in my heart and thought is the meditation of the heart – even so, let them be acceptable. For man thinks in his heart many things which he cannot frame to speak thus with his lips, therefore David says (Ps. 51:17): "O Lord, open Thou my lips"; and Solomon says (Prov. 16:1): "but the answer of the tongue is from the Lord."

O Lord, my Rock: – i.e. my Strength, in whom I put my trust in my requests,

and my Redeemer: – from errors and sins of passion.
