Psalms 4
4
For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm by David.
1Answer me when I call, God of my righteousness.
Give me relief from my distress.
Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer.
2You sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonor?
Will you love vanity and seek after falsehood? Selah.
3But know that Yahweh has set apart for himself him who is godly;
Yahweh will hear when I call to him.
4Stand in awe, and don’t sin.
Search your own heart on your bed, and be still. Selah.
5Offer the sacrifices of righteousness.
Put your trust in Yahweh.
6Many say, “Who will show us any good?”
Yahweh, let the light of your face shine on us.
7You have put gladness in my heart,
more than when their grain and their new wine are increased.
8In peace I will both lay myself down and sleep,
for you alone, Yahweh, make me live in safety.

PSALM 4
Evening Prayer of Trust in God.
For the choir director; on stringed instruments. A Psalm of David.
1Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness!
You have relieved me in my distress;
Be gracious to me and hear my prayer.
2O sons of men, how long will my honor become a reproach?
How long will you love what is worthless and aim at deception? Selah.
3But know that the Lord has set apart the godly man for Himself;
The Lord hears when I call to Him.
4Tremble, and do not sin;
Meditate in your heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah.
5Offer the sacrifices of righteousness,
And trust in the Lord.
6Many are saying, “Who will show us any good?”
Lift up the light of Your countenance upon us, O Lord!

More than when their grain and new wine abound.
8In peace I will both lie down and sleep,
For You alone, O Lord, make me to dwell in safety.
