Psalms Chapter 138

Psalms

psa 138:0

Overview

Psa 138:1, David praises God for the truth of his word; Psa 138:4, He prophesies that the kings of the earth shall praise God; Psa 138:7, He professes his confidence in God.

Five manuscripts omit ledawid; and the LXX and Arabic prefix also the names of Haggai and Zechariah; and it is probable that it was composed to be sung at the dedication of the second temple.
