King James Bible
"He brought me forth also into a large place; he delivered me, because he delighted in me."
The psalmist uses spatial imagery to describe divine rescue—moving from confinement or distress to an expansive, unrestricted space. In Hebrew thought, a 'large place' represents freedom, safety, and abundant provision, contrasting with the narrow confines of trouble. This phrase emphasizes the completeness of God's saving action—not merely assistance but full rescue from danger. The verb confirms that the deliverance is already accomplished, reflecting David's confidence in God's proven faithfulness. The motivation for divine rescue is revealed as God's personal pleasure and favor toward the psalmist. This intimate reason transforms the deliverance from mere duty to an act of love, highlighting the relational nature of God's covenant care.
