Psalms 4

 

Psalms 4

 

1 Answer me when I call to you, my righteous God. Give me relief from my distress; have mercy on me and hear my prayer.

 

2 How long will you people turn my glory into shame? How long will you love delusions and seek false gods?

 

3 Know that the LORD has set apart his faithful servant for himself; the LORD hears when I call to him.

 

4 Tremble and do not sin; when you are on your beds, search your hearts and be silent.

 

5 Offer the sacrifices of the righteous and trust in the LORD.

 

6 Many, LORD, are asking, “Who will bring us prosperity?” Let the light of your face shine on us.

 

7 Fill my heart with joy when their grain and new wine abound.

 

8 In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, LORD, make me dwell in safety.
