Psalms 139:1-3

1 David praises God for his all-seeing providence;

17 and for his infinite mercies.

19 He defies the wicked.

23 He prays for sincerity.

A.M. 2956. B.C. 1048. (Title.) A Psalm.This Psalm is supposed to have been composed by David when made king of Israel; though some think it was written by him when accused of traitorous designs against Saul.
