Mine eyes are ever toward the Lord. David is always looking to God (Psalms 141:8), waiting for him (Psalms 40:1; Psalms 62:1, Psalms 62:5; Psalms 69:3, etc.), expecting his providences, anticipating his deliverances (Psalms 3:7; Psalms 5:11; Psalms 7:1; Psalms 9:3, etc.
). He is now, apparently, in some danger or difficulty, and in need of the Divine succour (comp. Psalms 25:2). For he shall pluck my feet out of the net (comp. Psalms 9:15; Psalms 10:10; Psalms 31:5; Psalms 35:7, etc.
