SCRIPTURE

"I will meditate also upon all thy work, And muse on thy doings." — Psalms 77:12 (ASV)

I will meditate also of all your work
Or "works" F20 , which were many; he desired not to forget any of them, but remember the multitude of his tender mercies, and not only call them to mind, but dwell upon them in his meditations and contemplations, in order to gain some relief by them under his present circumstances:

and talk of your doings :
for the good of others, and so for the glory of God, as well as to imprint them on his own mind, that they might not be forgotten by him; for all things that are talked of, and especially frequently, are better remembered, see (Psalms 145:4–7Psalms 145:11Psalms 145:12) , the Targum is, "I will meditate on all your good works, and speak of the causes of your wonders."
