Psalms 4

4:1 For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm by David. Answer me when I call, God of my righteousness. Give me relief from my distress. Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer.

4:2 You sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonour? Will you love vanity and seek after falsehood? Selah.

4:3 But know that the LORD has set apart for himself him who is godly; The LORD will hear when I call to him.

4:4 Stand in awe, and don’t sin. Search your own heart on your bed, and be still. Selah.

4:5 Offer the sacrifices of righteousness. Put your trust in the LORD.

4:6 Many say, “Who will show us any good?” LORD, let the light of your face shine on us.

4:7 You have put gladness in my heart, more than when their grain and their new wine are increased.

4:8 In peace I will both lay myself down and sleep, for you alone, the LORD, make me live in safety.
