hide text
28:1 David cried out in prayer for the Lord's deliverance from his enemies so he would not die. The "pit"refers to the grave.
28:2-4 The psalmist begged God to hear and respond to his petition. The sanctuary (Heb. debir) is where the ark abode. David asked that the Lord not judge him with the sinners who opposed him. Moreover he requested that God punish the wicked as they justly deserved.
