Psalms 4

Psalm 4

For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm by David.

1 Answer me when I call, Elohim of my righteousness. Give me relief from my distress. Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer. 2 You sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonor? Will you love vanity, and seek after falsehood? Selah. 3 But know that Yehowah has set apart for himself him who is godly: Yehowah will hear when I call to him. 4 Stand in awe, and don�t sin. Search your own heart on your bed, and be still. Selah. 5 Offer the sacrifices of righteousness. Put your trust in Yehowah. 6 Many say, �Who will show us any good?� Yehowah, let the light of your face shine on us. 7 You have put gladness in my heart, more than when their grain and their new wine are increased. 8 In peace I will both lay myself down and sleep, for you, Yehowah alone, make me live in safety.
