hide text
The writer began by reaffirming his confidence in God in whom he had trusted in the past. He wanted God's deliverance from the attacks of wicked people so that his confidence in God would not prove vain. He spoke of the Lord as a refuge, rock, and fortress. We do not know if he was under verbal or physical attack or both types.
