hide text
The psalmist called on all the Israelites to trust in the true God rather than idols because He alone can help and defend people. He addressed this charge to all Israel, then the priests who were mainly responsible for the purity of Israel's worship, and then all Godfearing people. He used repetition to impress the importance of trusting in the Lord on the reader.
