Psalms 73:21

Psa 73:21 Thus my heart was grieved, and I was pricked in my reins.

Ver. 21. Thus my heart was grieved ] Heb. leavened and soured, sc. with the greatness of godly sorrow, et quasi aceto acri perfundebatur, it was steeped, as it were, in vinegar. So Peter wept bitterly; waters of Marah flowed from his eyes.

And I was pricked in my reins ] Pricked at heart, as those, Acts 2:37 , put to as much pain as those that have the stone in the kidneys, exceedingly grieved for my misconstruing and miscensuring of God’s ways and people.
