The Lord brings a plague on Israel for the sins of David. However, David asks the Lord to forgive the sheep for his transgressions as he was the sinner and not them.
As we return to Psalm 1 I am trying to read with a different eye. We are blessed if we meditate on and follow God's Word. We will be righteous if we do this and keep ourselves from sin.

I am not sure what sins David is atoning for. There were many along the way so this seems out of place somehow. Or maybe I just overlooked something. But David does ask to take the punishment instead of the people.
This psalm says Blessed is the one who delights in the law of the Lord and meditates on it day and night. The Lord will watch over the way of the righteous.
