Psalms 56

1 David, praying to God in confidence of his word, complains of his enemies.

9 He professes his confidence in God's word, and promises to praise him.

56:1

[A.M. 2942. B.C. 1062. (Title.) upon {Jonath-elem- rechokim.}]

Or, as it may be rendered, "concerning the dumb dove, (or oppressed band) in distant places," i.e., David, or his companions; though some consider it as the name of a tune, and others a musical instrument.
