“Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all.”
The psalmist acknowledges that the righteous face many troubles but asserts that the LORD delivers them from all of them. The phrase "Many are the troubles of the righteous" reflects realism about the difficulty of the righteous life. The assertion that God ''delivers from all of them'' suggests that while troubles may be numerous, God's deliverance is comprehensive. The verse establishes that righteous conduct does not exempt one from difficulty but assures divine intervention.
