The psalmist asserts that the eyes of the LORD are on the righteous and his ears are attentive to their cry. The imagery of eyes and ears directed toward the righteous suggests God's sustained attention and responsiveness. The contrast implicit in the verse suggests that God's particular attention is directed toward those maintaining righteousness. The affirmation that God's ears are ''attentive'' suggests that God actively listens to prayers and appeals. The verse assures the righteous that they are under God's watchful care.
