Psalms 31:9

9. I am in trouble He had escaped, and his “feet” were “in a large room,” (Psalms 31:8,) but he was not out of danger or suffering.

Eye… soul… belly The “eye” as representing the head, the seat of the senses and of external perception; the “soul” ( נפשׁ ) as representing the seat of life; and the “belly” ( בשׂן ) as representing the innermost sensibilities, the seat of feeling and sympathy, cover the entire phenomenal being of man. Nothing is left but the רוח , ( πνευμα , spirit,) the immortal nature. All his being, so far as respected his power of manifestation of thought or feeling, was consumed with grief. It is difficult to convey the intensity of these expressions of the psalmist. See Psalms 31:10
