Commentary

Commentary

Deliver me from the workers of iniquity,.... See Gill on Psa 6:8 ; and save me from bloody men; such a s Saul sent to kill David, as appears from the title of the psalm; and such as were concerned in the death of Christ; and such, are the enemies of God's people, the followers of the man of sin. The heap of words, the various expressions used in a way of petition, in this verse and Psa 59:1 , show the distress the psalmist was in, and whom he represents; his importunity, earnestness, and fervency in prayer.
