Psalm 6:<\/p>\n

Author:
\n<\/span><\/em>King David–the second king of Israel and father of the Davidic royal and messianic dynasty. David composed over seventy of the 150 psalms of Sefer Tehillim.<\/span><\/p>\n

When and Why:
\n<\/span><\/em>David wrote this psalm after recovering from a serious sickness<\/span><\/p>\n

Genre<\/em>:
\n<\/span>Psalm of Individual Lament– This psalm was written from the perspective of the individual worshipper, who cries out to God in his time of need. It is characterized as an address to God involving a complaint, followed by a request and ending with an expression of trust.<\/span><\/p>\n

Chapter Summary:<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/em>David composed this psalm in the midst of his illness and pain, and thus prays for deliverance and life. He also addresses his enemies: \u201cAshamed and utterly terrified will all my foes be, they will return and be instantaneously ashamed.\u201d Likewise, he hints at the suffering and martyrdom of the Jewish people throughout the ages.<\/span><\/p>\n

This psalm consists of eleven verses, subdivided into three parts.
\n<\/span>Verse 1 serves as a heading.
\n<\/span>In verses 2-6, King David addresses his supplications directly to God.
\n<\/span>In verses 7-9, he describes his grief as if talking to himself.
\n<\/span>In verses 9-11, he speaks out against his enemies and commands them to depart from his midst.<\/span><\/p>\n

Shimush Tehillim–When to Say This Psalm
