What does Psalms Chapter 58 say, and which statements belong to its speaker?

The Latin incipit is Eripe me. The separate heading describes deliverance and confidence and applies the psalm to Christ and His enemies the Jews. The inscription names David when Saul sent and watched his house to kill him, referencing 1 Kings 19. It gives no night deployment or decision to reject armed flight. The speaker asks delivery from enemies, iniquity workers and bloody men. Mighty people have rushed upon him and caught his soul; he says neither his iniquity nor sin is the cause and that he ran and directed steps without iniquity.

He calls the Lord, God of hosts and Israel, to meet him, behold, visit nations and show no mercy to iniquity workers. Enemies shall return at evening, hunger like dogs and circle the city. They shall speak with swords in their lips and ask who has heard. The Lord shall laugh and bring nations to nothing. The speaker will keep strength to his protector; mercy shall come before him.

God shall let him see over enemies. He asks they not be slain lest his people forget, but scattered and brought down. He asks their pride taken for mouth's sins, cursing and lying. The text also anticipates consumption in wrath until they are no more and know God's rule over Jacob and earth's ends; this is not omitted in favor of a permanent nonlethal penalty. Returning hunger and scattering to eat are repeated, with murmuring if unfilled. He will sing strength and extol mercy in morning, naming God his support, refuge, helper, defence and mercy.
