Psalm 51:8-10 Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which you have broken may rejoice. When David's conscience was roused by Nathan's ministry, and sot upon the rack, so that he now was sensible of the terror of the Lord, and of the heinousness of his sin, the ease was altered, and that which before pleased him at the heart was now a pain to his heart, the vexation far exceeded all the former pleasures that he found. The pleasingness of sin was gone, the torment following it stuck by him, and it was no easy matter to remove it. (S. Hieron.)
