Psalm 31:1-6

Listen to Psalm 31:1-6
1 Een psalm van David, voor den opperzangmeester.
2 Op U, o HEERE! betrouw ik, laat mij niet beschaamd worden in eeuwigheid; help mij uit door Uw gerechtigheid.
3 Neig Uw oor tot mij, red mij haastelijk; wees mij tot een sterke Rotssteen, tot een zeer vast Huis, om mij te behouden.
4 Want Gij zijt mijn Steenrots en mijn Burg; leid mij dan, en voer mij, om Uws Naams wil.
5 Doe mij uitgaan uit het net, dat zij voor mij verborgen hebben, want Gij zijt mijn Sterkte.
6 In Uw hand beveel ik mijn geest; Gij hebt mij verlost, HEERE, Gij, God der waarheid!

Psalm 31:1-6 Meaning and Commentary

To the chief Musician, a Psalm of David. This psalm, according to Arama, was composed by David when in Keilah; but, according to Kimchi and others, when the Ziphites proposed to deliver him up into the hands of Saul; and who, upon their solicitations, came down and surrounded him with his army, from whom in haste he made his escape, and to which he is thought to refer in Psalm 31:22. Theodoret supposes it was written by David when he fled from Absalom, and that it has some respect in it to his sin against Uriah, in that verse.
