Occurring only in the title of Ps 9:1–20. Some interpret the words as meaning “on the death of Labben,” some unknown person. Others render the word, “on the death of the son;” i.e., of Absalom (2 Sam 18:33). Others again have taken the word as the name of a musical instrument, or as the name of an air to which the psalm was sung.
