David's greatest fear was not punishment, but total separation from God. Commentators explain that being 'cast away from thy presence' represents the ultimate misery for a believer—losing the relationship and favor of God. This reflects the heart of a true child of God who, even in sin, cannot bear the thought of being abandoned by their Father.
