alumoth-labben <04192> [A.M. 2941. B.C. 1063. (Title.) Muthlabben.]

Probably, "the death of the champion:" so the Chaldee has, "A Psalm of David, to be sung concerning the death of the man who went out between ({mibbeyney}) the camps;" evidently considering {labben,} of the same import as {bainayim,} "a middle-man or champion," as Goliath is termed, 1 Sa 17:4, concerning whose defeat this psalm is generally supposed to have been composed.
