1a “He trusts in the LORD
2a let him deliver him;
2b let him rescue him,
1b for he delights in him!"
Notice that David’s enemies know the covenant name of God, and they know, although presumably do not believe, that Yahweh’s nature is to deliver those who trust him. Strikingly then we are told that David's enemies are members of Israel, but from what we have seen of Israel in v3:
"Yet you are holy, enthroned on the praises of Israel"
they are not true Israel.
