Psalms 4

PSALM 4.
1Unto the end, in verses, a psalm of David.
2When I called upon him, the God of my justice heard me: when I was in distress, thou hast enlarged me. Have mercy on me: and hear my prayer.
3O ye sons of men, how long will you be dull of heart? Why do you love vanity, and seek after lying?
4Know ye also that the Lord hath made his holy one wonderful: the Lord will hear me when I shall cry unto him.
5Be angry, and sin not: the things you say in your hearts, be sorry for them upon your beds.
6Offer up the sacrifice of justice, and trust in the Lord: many say, Who sheweth us good things?
7The light of thy countenance O Lord, is signed upon us: thou hast given gladness in my heart.
8By the fruit of their corn, their wine and oil, they are multiplied.
9In peace in the selfsame I will sleep, and I will rest:
10For thou, O Lord, singularly hast settled me in hope.

Psalms 4
4
Psalm 4
For the choir director; with stringed instruments; a psalm by David.
1Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness.
You have freed me from my troubles.
Have pity on me, and hear my prayer!
2You important people,
how long are you going to insult my honor?
How long are you going to love what is empty
and seek what is a lie? Selah
3Know that the Lord singles out godly people for himself.
The Lord hears me when I call to him.
4Tremble and do not sin.
Think about this on your bed and remain quiet. Selah
5Offer the sacrifices of righteousness
by trusting the Lord.
6Many are saying, “Who can show us anything good?”
Let the light of your presence shine on us, O Lord.
7You put more joy in my heart
than when their grain and new wine increase.
8I fall asleep in peace the moment I lie down
because you alone, O Lord, enable me to live securely.
