I am severely afflicted
The phrase "I am severely afflicted" reflects a deep personal distress and suffering. The Hebrew root for "afflicted" is "עָנָה" (anah), which conveys a sense of being humbled or oppressed. Historically, this term is often used in the Old Testament to describe the suffering of the Israelites under foreign oppression or during times of personal trial. The psalmist's admission of severe affliction is a candid acknowledgment of human vulnerability and the trials that believers may face. It serves as a reminder that even the faithful endure hardships, yet these moments of suffering can draw one closer to God, fostering a deeper reliance on His strength and mercy.

O LORD
The invocation "O LORD" uses the sacred name of God, "Yahweh" (יהוה), which is often rendered as "LORD" in English translations. This name is deeply significant in the Hebrew tradition, representing the eternal, self-existent nature of God. By calling upon Yahweh, the psalmist is appealing to the covenant-keeping God of Israel, who is both personal and powerful. This invocation underscores the intimate relationship between the psalmist and God, highlighting a trust in God's character and His promises. It is a call for divine intervention and a testament to the psalmist's faith in God's ability to deliver and sustain.

revive me
The plea "revive me" is a request for restoration and renewal. The Hebrew word "חָיָה" (chayah) means to live, to have life, or to be restored to life. This request is not merely for physical sustenance but for spiritual rejuvenation. In the context of the psalm, it reflects a desire for God's life-giving presence to renew the psalmist's spirit amidst affliction. This plea is a powerful reminder of the transformative power of God's word and presence, which can bring life and hope even in the darkest circumstances.

according to Your word
The phrase "according to Your word" emphasizes the foundation of the psalmist's hope and expectation. The Hebrew term for "word" is "דָּבָר" (dabar), which can refer to God's spoken word, His promises, or His commandments. This highlights the reliability and authority of God's word as the basis for the psalmist's request for revival. It underscores the belief that God's promises are trustworthy and that His word is a source of life and guidance. For the believer, this phrase is an encouragement to anchor one's faith and hope in the unchanging truth of Scripture, trusting that God will act in accordance with His revealed will.

Verse 107. - I am afflicted very much (comp. vers. 23, 28, 50, 51, 61, 71, 78, etc.). Spoken against by princes, reproached by the proud, persecuted without a cause, the psalmist felt his "affliction" to be grievous, almost intolerable. Being brought near to death, he prays for a "little reviving." Quicken me, O Lord, according unto thy Word (comp. vers. 25, 37, 40, 88, etc.).
