Biblical tradition says that King David wrote many of the psalms. However, scholars say that the psalms were a genre unknown at the time attributed to David. They say that the psalms were really written much later, during the Babylonian Exile and up to two hundred years afterwards.

Did david write psalms?
Yes, of course, David was a great poet of God also, as well as the other annointings he had. At the very beginning of each Psalm it is said who it belongs to (verse 1 in each Psalm) and very few are without any name such as 91 and 92, but they maybe following the previous psalm 90 so that makes Moses the author of them. But in the Hebrew original it is written "of David" - "L'Dovid" at the beginning of the psalms that belong to him. Also in the New Testament it is said that David was the author of many psalms. Romans 4:6-7 for example. Shalom !
