Clarke's Psalms 119:117 Bible Commentary
Hold thou me up - I shall grow weary and faint in the way, if not strengthened and supported by thee.
And I shall be safe - No soul can be safe, unless upheld by thee.
Barnes's Psalms 119:117 Bible Commentary
Hold thou me up - Keep me from falling in the trials and temptations of life. The Hebrew word means to prop, uphold, support. The Septuagint is, "Aid me."
And I shall be safe - And I shall be saved; or, that I may be saved. It is an acknowledgment of entire dependence on God for salvation - temporal and eternal.
And I will have respect ... - I will look to thy statutes; I will have them always in my eye. Compare the notes at Psalm 119:6.
