Chapter 34

I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.

A. M. 2942. B.C. 1062. (Title.) Abimelech. or, Achish. This is the second of the alphabetical Psalms (the first being Ps 25:); each verse beginning consecutively with a letter of the Hebrew alphabet. The verse, however, which begins with [^w^, v‚v] {wav,} and which should come in between the fifth and sixth, is totally wanting; but as the 22nd, which now begins with [^p^, pÍ] {pay, podeh,} "redeemeth," is entirely out of the series, it is not improbable that it was originally written {oophodeh,} "and redeemeth" and occupied that situation, in which connection it reads admirably.
