Best Answer

All the psalms were written anonymously, and scholars say that the earliest were written during the Babylonian Exile and then during a period of around two hundred years. Thus, we can not be certain exactly which is the oldest surviving psalm to be written, nor of course who wrote it. However tradition holds that the psalms were written much earlier than this, with the earliest of them written by King David.
