Psalm 17
Book • 2024
Psalm 17 is a prayer where King David pleads for divine interposition and protection from his enemies.
David professes his innocence and righteousness, highlighting his adherence to God's ways and his avoidance of wicked deeds.
He asks God to protect him as the 'apple of your eye' and to shield him under His wings, similar to a mother bird protecting her chicks.
The psalm contrasts David's focus on spiritual life and the resurrection with the worldly focus of his enemies, who do not fear God or judgment.
David expresses deep trust in God's hearing and answering his prayers, and he looks forward to seeing God's face in righteousness.
