By the king, David means himself. You could indicate this explicitly in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [I, the king,]

Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns

בּ֑⁠וֹ

(Some words not found in UHB: people,will_pour_him on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in power_of sword portion_of jackals become )

The pronoun him refers to God. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [by God]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

כִּ֥י יִ֝סָּכֵ֗ר פִּ֣י דֽוֹבְרֵי־שָֽׁקֶר

(Some words not found in UHB: people,will_pour_him on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in power_of sword portion_of jackals become )

The psalmist is using one part of a person, the mouth, to mean all of him in the act of speaking lies. The phrase will be shut means that they will be stopped or silenced. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [speakers of falsehood will be silenced] or [those who speak falsehood will be stopped]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

שָֽׁקֶר

(Some words not found in UHB: people,will_pour_him on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in power_of sword portion_of jackals become )

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of falsehood, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [false things]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

יִ֝סָּכֵ֗ר

(Some words not found in UHB: people,will_pour_him on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in power_of sword portion_of jackals become )

The expression will be shut is a passive verbal form. If it would be unnatural to use that form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who does the action, the context indicates that it is God. Alternate translation: [God will shut the mouth of speakers of falsehood] or [will stop speaking]
