Psalms 4

Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness! You have given me relief when I was in distress. Be gracious to me and hear my prayer! 2 O men, how long shall my honour be turned into shame? How long will you love vain words and seek after lies? Selah 3  But know that the Lord has set apart the godly for himself; the Lord hears when I call to him. 4 Be angry and do not sin; ponder in your own hearts on your beds, and be silent. Selah. 5  Offer right sacrifices and put your trust in the Lord. 6 There are many who say, “Who will show us some good? Lift up the light of your face upon us, O Lord!” 7  You have put more joy in my heart than they have when their grain and wine abound. 8  In peace I will both lie down and sleep; for you alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety.
