Psalm 4 is an individual lament, a plea for help.    David appeals to the righteousness of God.  Again, David recollects a past experience, where God has rescued him, much like Psalm 3, which emboldens his faith to pray confidently in the present.    David then has a word of rebuke for those faithless people who mock the godly man.    Psalm 4 states with certainty that God hears the prayer of the godly person.    It cautions the godly sufferer about anger.  They can be angry, but they should not let this anger lead them into sin.  The correct response is to increase their faith and to trust in God for vindication.  Check yourself in prayer, be angry, but sin not, trust in the Lord.
