Psalms 94:17

Psa 94:17 Unless the LORD [had been] my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence.

Ver. 17. Unless the Lord had been my help ] He loveth to help at a pinch; he usually reserveth his hand for a dead lift. See 2 Timothy 4:16-17 .

My soul had almost dwelt in silence ] i.e. In the dark cloisters of death. The Greek and Latin translators render it, In hell.
