Psalms 17:1
[A.M. 2942. B.C. 1062. (Title.)]
consider <08085> [Hear.]
just cause <06664> [the right. Heb. justice. attend.]
sincerely offer <04820 08193 03808> [not out of feigned lips. Heb. without lips of deceit.]
Psalms 43:1
[A.M. 2983. B.C. 1021. (Title.)]
This Psalm is evidently a continuation of the preceding, and had the same author; and they are written as one in forty-six MSS. The sameness of subject, similarity of composition, and return of the same burden in both, are sufficient evidence of this opinion.
Vindicate <08199> [Judge.]
Fight for me <07378> [plead.]
ungodly <03808> [ungodly. or, unmerciful. the deceitful. Heb. a man of deceit and iniquity.]
Psalms 109:2
say <06310> [the mouth.]
deceptive <04820> [of the deceitful. Heb. of deceit. are opened. Heb. have opened themselves. with.]
