Psalm 55
1. David in his prayer complains of his fearful case
9. He prays against his enemies, of whose wickedness and treachery he complains
16. He comforts himself in God's preservation oh him, and confusion of his enemies














(14) And walked . . .--i.e., joined the great public processions to the temple. (Comp. Psalm 44:4.) The word rendered "company" occurs again (Psalm 64:2. Authorised Version, "insurrection." Comp. the same root, Psalm 2:1.) The intimacy of these former friends was public as well as private.

Verse 14. - We took sweet counsel together (comp. 2 Samuel 15:12; 2 Samuel 16:23; 1 Chronicles 27:33). And walked unto the house of God in company; rather, in the throng (Cheyne, Revised Version); i.e. in the midst of the crowd of worshippers. When David went up to the house of God, who is more likely to have accompanied him than his chief "counsellor"?
