Call upon Me
This phrase invites believers to actively seek God in times of trouble. The Hebrew root for "call" is "קָרָא" (qara), which implies a vocal and earnest plea. Historically, calling upon God was a common practice among the Israelites, signifying a deep reliance on divine intervention. This call is not just a casual mention but a heartfelt cry, acknowledging God's sovereignty and willingness to listen.

in the day of trouble
The "day of trouble" refers to any period of distress or adversity. In the Hebrew context, "trouble" (צָרָה, tsarah) often denotes a narrow or tight place, symbolizing the pressures and challenges of life. Throughout biblical history, God's people faced numerous trials, from personal struggles to national crises. This phrase reassures believers that no trouble is too great for God to handle.

I will deliver you
Here, God promises deliverance, a recurring theme in Scripture. The Hebrew word for "deliver" is "חָלַץ" (chalats), meaning to rescue or draw out. This assurance of deliverance is rooted in God's faithfulness, as seen in the deliverance of Israel from Egypt and countless other instances. It emphasizes God's power and commitment to save those who trust in Him.

and you will honor Me
The response to God's deliverance is to "honor" Him. The Hebrew word "כָּבֵד" (kaved) means to give weight or glory. This implies that acknowledging God's intervention should lead to a life that glorifies Him. Historically, honoring God was expressed through worship, obedience, and testimony. This phrase encourages believers to live in a way that reflects gratitude and reverence for God's saving acts.

Verse 15. - And call upon me in the day of trouble (comp. Psalm 20:1). I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me. The meaning is, "Then, when thou shalt offer unto me a true worship (ver. 14), if thou wilt call upon me in the day of trouble, I will assuredly deliver thee, and so give thee occasion for glorifying me."
