Psalms 27:7

Psa 27:7 Hear, O LORD, [when] I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me.

Ver. 7. Hear, O Lord, when I cry ] This was his form of prayer, or to this effect, when he was in any distress or danger. As a good soldier of Jesus Christ, he had weapons, not only defensive (the shield of faith, helmet of hope, breastplate of righteousness, &c., as Eph 6:14-18 ), but also offensive, viz. the darts of prayer, as here, and the sword of the Spirit, the word of God, as in the next.
