Psalms 52:1

Compare 1 Samuel 21:1-10; 1 Samuel 22:1-10, for the history of the title. Psalms 52:1 gives the theme; the boast of the wicked over the righteous is vain, for God constantly cares for His people. This is expanded by describing the malice and deceit, and then the ruin, of the wicked, and the happy state of the pious. (Psalms 52:1-9)

mighty man--literally, "hero." Doeg may be thus addressed, ironically, in respect of his might in slander.
