📚 Historical Context
This verse comes from David's psalm of thanksgiving when the Ark of the Covenant was brought to Jerusalem. David appointed Levites to lead worship and praise before the Ark, and this prayer reflects the ongoing reality that Israel often faced threats from surrounding nations. The plea to be 'gathered together' suggests concern about potential exile or scattering of God's people.
