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.

2Answer me when I call, God of my righteousness! You set me free when I am in distress. Be gracious to me and hear my prayer.
3O sons of men, how long will you turn my glory into my shame? How long will you love worthlessness and pursue falsehood? Selah
4But know that Adonai has set apart the godly for His own. Adonai will hear when I call to Him.
5Tremble, but do not sin! Search your heart while on your bed, and be silent. Selah
6Offer righteous sacrifices and put your trust in Adonai.
7Many are asking, “Who will show us some good?” May the light of Your face shine upon us, Adonai!
