<p>See here, 1. How David was abused even by great men, who should have known better his character and his case, and have been more generous: <i>Princes did sit</i>, sit in council, sit in judgment, and <i>speak against me</i>. What even princes say is not always right; but it is sad when judgment is thus turned to wormwood, when those that should be the protectors of the innocent are their betrayers. Herein David was a type of Christ, for they were the princes of this world that vilified and <i>crucified the Lord of glory</i>, <a class="bibleref" title="1Cor.2.8" href="/passage/?search=1Cor.2.8">1 Cor. 2:8</a>. 2. What method he took to make himself easy under these abuses: he <i>meditated in Gods statutes</i>, went on in his duty, and did not regard them; as a deaf man, he heard not. When they spoke against him, he found that in the word of God which spoke for him, and spoke comfort to him, and then none of these things moved him. Those that have pleasure in communion with God may easily despise the censures of men, even of princes.</p>
