TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

22:1-51 Although this prayer of thanksgiving (also recorded in Ps 18) is placed near the end of David’s story, David probably offered it to God much earlier in his life. This prayer and Hannah’s (1 Sam 2:1-10) together enclose the book of Samuel with an inclusio (literary bookends). Hannah was saved from barrenness; David was saved from his enemies. The placement of this hymn also provides a parallel to Moses. The stories of both Moses and David end with a song or hymn giving lavish praise to God (see also Deut 31:30–32:43). Both highlight God as a “Rock” (Deut 32:4, 15, 18, 30, 31; 2 Sam 22:2, 3, 32, 47). Both are followed by second and shorter poetic pieces—Moses’ final blessing to the Israelite tribes (Deut 33), and David’s last words (2 Sam 23:1-7).

UTN uW Translation Notes:

(Occurrence 0) I can run over a barricade

(Some words not found in UHB: that/for/because/then/when in/on/at/with,you run troop in/on/at/with,God,my leap_over wall )

Here “barricade” may refer to a group of soldiers or to a stone wall. Either way it means God enables David to defeat his enemies.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

(Occurrence 0) I can leap over a wall

(Some words not found in UHB: that/for/because/then/when in/on/at/with,you run troop in/on/at/with,God,my leap_over wall )

David is exaggerating to emphasize Yahweh’s help. Alternate translation: “I can climb over the wall that surrounds their city”
