Study note
Setting — The psalmist addresses God directly after a period of intense distress, deliberately turning from personal complaint to focused recollection.
The words — The Hebrew הָגִ֥יתִי (ha.Gi.ti) and אָשִֽׂיחָה ('a.Si.chah) both describe sustained mental activity, literally meaning to meditate or ponder.
The thread — This pattern of recounting divine acts appears in Psalms 71:24, Psalms 145:11, and Deuteronomy 6:7, where verbalizing God's works functions as a covenant practice.
Why it lands — The text commands the reader to actively fix attention on recorded divine actions rather than current circumstances, treating remembrance as a deliberate discipline.
Drafted by a language model from the text, its original words and its cross-references, then checked against them. It can still be wrong: open the verse in the app to report it.
The Hebrew words

I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings.
