This psalm is a prayer for the king. It is an excellent prayer for every leader of any nation. For the nations that fear the LORD will survive. I thing the psalm reflects the attributes that God seeks to develope in every leader. Whether they lead a family, a congregation, or an office complex. There is a need to ethical behavior and right judgements in every situation. That is not always an easy task. So this psalm also gives the example of a wise follower: pray for those who lead. That is very often easier said than done.
It took me about 3 minutes to read this psalm.
