Psalm 4 is an evening prayer. [[David]] is retiring to sleep in the bosom of [[God]]. He is confident that the [[Lord]] will hear when he calls upon Him (verse 3); he stresses the fact that we should put our trust in the [[Lord]] (verse 5); he thanks the [[Lord]] for the gladness that is in his heart (verse 7); and for the [[peace]] of mind that comes from knowing [[God]] (verse 8).

+

Psalm 5 is an evening prayer. [[David]] is beset by treacherous enemies and prays and shouts for joy in the confidence that [[God]] will protect him. [[David]] must have had many enemies, for he refers to them over and over again. Many of the most magnificent [[Psalms]] were born of [[David]]'s troubles.

+

Psalm 6 is the first of the Penitential [[Psalms]] and is the cry of a broken heart. This Psalm was perhaps occasioned by [[David]]'s [[sin]] with Bathsheba and records a time of sickness, bitter grief, tears, humiliation, shame, and reproach by [[David]]'s enemies.

+

Psalm 7 is another prayer for protection, as [[David]] is in grave danger. In verse 3 [[David]] avows his own righteousness. Cush, the Benjamite, could have been one of Saul's officers in pursuit of [[David]].

+

When a Psalm is quoted in the [[New Testament]] and applied to Christ, it is known as a Messianic Psalm. Psalm 8 is applied to Christ in several places in the [[New Testament]] ([[Matthew]] 21:16; Hebrews 2:6-9; I Corinthians 15:27; and Ephesians 1:22). As Son of man, Christ appears in humiliation, a little lower than the angels, to taste [[death]] for every man, and is now crowned with glory and honor (verses 1-5). Man was given dominion over creation, which was lost by [[sin]], and which is to be restored only by the second [[Adam]] (Christ), verses 6-9.
