Psalms86:1-2
PSALM 86
Psa 86:1-17. This is a prayer in which the writer, with deep emotion, mingles petitions and praises, now urgent for help, and now elated with hope, in view of former mercies. The occurrence of many terms and phrases peculiar to David's Psalms clearly intimates its authorship.
1-2. poor and needy--a suffering child of God, as in Psa 10:12, 17; 18:27.
I am holy--or, "godly," as in Psa 4:3; 85:8.
