David prayeth for favour in judgment: he complaineth of his griefs: he strengtheneth his faith by meditation and prayer: he prayeth for grace, for deliverance, for sanctification, and for destruction of his enemies.

A Psalm of David.

Title. לדוד מזמור mizmor ledavid. This psalm is thought to have been composed by David, when Absalom his son persecuted him; and so it was inscribed in some old Greek copies. It is the last of those stiled penitential psalms.
