Isaiah 38:15

Isa 38:15 What shall I say? he hath both spoken unto me, and himself hath done [it]: I shall go softly all my years in the bitterness of my soul.

Ver. 15. What shall I say? ] This he seemeth to speak in a way of wondering at God’s goodness in delivering him from so great a death. The like doth the apostle in Romans 8:31 , "What shall we then say to these things?"

He hath both spoken unto me, and himself hath done it. ] He no sooner bade me be well, but he made me so. a Thus he attributeth his recovery to the most faithful promise of God, and not to the lump of figs, &c.

I shall go softly all my years in the bitterness of my soul. ] Or, I shall go quietly and cheerfully all my years after my soul’s bitternsss - sc., When it is past and gone. b
