The psalmist called on God for mercy because God was his chosen portion in life (vv. 57-58). He professed to having lived in keeping with what God had commanded (vv. 58-60) even when his enemies intimidated him (vv. 61-62). He had made his companions others who followed God's law as he did (vv. 63-64).
