The Psalmist is here again under affliction, and is looking to the mercy-seat for deliverance. He makes complaint against his enemies, and those of the church.

Song 1-8
Whether we behold Christ, thus appealing to the Father, under his exercises, for himself and church; or the church herself thus crying, in his name, for God to arise against her foes, the sense is the same. Jesus and his church have but one and the same cause. And it is for the oppression of the poor and the sighing of the needy, that the Lord saith he will arise; Psalms 12:5.
