Psalms59:1
PSAL. LIX.
ALtaſchith] Deſtroy not, preſerve me from this Ambuſcado. See Pſal. 57. title.
When Saul ſent, and they watched the houſe] But were diſappointed by Michal ſhifting him out of the way, preferring an Husband before a Father, though ſhe had otherwiſe no great goodneſs in her. The glory of this deliverance David wholly aſcribeth to God, and ſeeketh help of him.
Verſ. 1. Deliver me from mine enemies, O God] This Pſalm is the ſame in ſubſtance with thoſe afore-going, viz. Davids deſire to be delivered from Sauls craft and cruelty.
Defend me from them] Heb. Set me on high, farre out of their reach.
