The psalms are traditionally associated with Kings David and Solomon, or their contemporaries. However, scholars say that the psalms were a literary genre unknown in the time of the legendary kings. They say that the psalms were really written by anonymous authors over a period of more than two hundred years, during and after the Babylonian Exile.
When we look at Psalm 46, we can see the effects of the Babylonian Exile, even in verse 1-3: "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah. " The author was not a mighty king, sweeping all opposition before him. There is a sense of despair and of God as the last hope of the nation. Verses 6 and confirm that the psalm was written after the destruction of Judah: "The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted... Come, behold the works of the LORD, what desolations he hath made in the earth. "
While we do not know the name of the author, we can say that he probably lived and wrote during the dark times of the Babylonian Exile, before the Persians defeated the Babylonians and liberated the Jews.

We don't. In spite of the usual attributions, scholars say that all the psalms, including both Psalm 90 and 91, were written during a relatively short period of only two hundred years, beginning with the Babylonian Exile.
The authorship of Psalm 119 is attributed to King David. It is the longest chapter in the Book of Psalms and is a reflection on the importance of God's word in the life of a believer.
