On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

Nor shall he grudge if he be not satisfied, as David's enemies, when they wandered up and down for meat, Ps. lix. Some make this promise relate especially to those that are charitable and liberal to the poor, and to intimate that David never observed any that brought themselves to poverty by their charity. It is withholding more than is meet that tends to poverty, Prov. xi.
