Psalm 69 is traditionally attributed to the legendary King David, writing around the beginning of the tenth century BCE. However, scholars say that the psalms were a literary genre unknown at the time attributed to David. They say the psalms were written over a period of more than two hundred years, during and after the Babylonian Exile. In any case, verse 35 says that God will save Zion (Jerusalem), whereas once David conquered Jerusalem the Old Testament mentions no further threat to the city during the lifetime of David, making this verse inappropriate to the context of David.
The images of flood waters in verses 2 and 15 suggest that the author was familiar with the great rivers of Babylon, and their regular floods. The sadness expressed reinforces the notion that Psalm 69 was written during the sixth century time of the Babylonian Exile.

Who wrote Psalm 69?
A:The King James Bible attributes Psalm 69 to King David, although scholars say that the psalms were a genre unknown at the time of David. There is evidence in the text that Psalm was written after the time of David and probably during the Babylonian Exile. Verse 9 refers to the house of God, the Temple, which is not supposed to have existed in the time of David. Zion (verse 35) became a name for Jerusalem, and "God will save Zion" refers to a time when Jerusalem was under threat or had been destroyed - the time of the Babylonian Exile. The overall despondent tone of the psalm also brings to mind the depths of the Exile, especially the reference to "prisoners" in verse 33. Reference to "waterflood" in verses 1 and 15 seems out of place in Jerusalem, but suits Babylon, which is adjacent to the great Tigris and Euphrates Rivers.Like all the psalms, Psalm 69 is anonymous and all we can say is that it must have been written during the Babylonian Exile.
