Psalms 28:1-9

This Ps. is in many respects similar to Psalms 26, especially in the writer's prayer that he may be distinguished from the wicked, and may escape their fate; and in the confidence which he reaches in the closing verses. In this Ps., however, the peril of death appears more acute (Psalms 28:1), and some have supposed that both Pss. were written in a time of pestilence.
