Psalms 4

Answer Me When I Call!
1 To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments. A Psalm of David.

 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 honor 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.
