1. Who is the author and what is it called? What is the author asking God to do? Why? What event is this referencing? (Numbers 10:35) What two analogies does David use to illustrate what he is asking God to do? (2) What does this illustrate concerning God? About his enemies? Who does the psalm focus on next? What does it mean to be righteous? How are they to be? Is this self-generated gladness and joy? Is it generated because of what had happened and is happening? (Galatians 5:22; Hebrew 1:9, 12:2; 1 Peter 1:8)
2. What are the righteous instructed to do? (4) Why? Look at three reasons in verse 5. Then, three more reasons in verse 6.
