Psalm 4, NEW AMERICAN STANDARD BIBLE
Prior Chapter  |  Next Chapter

1

Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness!
You have relieved me in my distress;
Be gracious to me and hear my prayer.
 

2

O sons of men, how long will my honor become a reproach?
How long will you love what is worthless and aim at deception? Selah.
 

3

But know that the LORD has set apart the godly man for Himself;
The LORD hears when I call to Him.
 

4

Tremble, and do not sin;
Meditate in your heart upon your bed, and be still.  Selah.
 

5

Offer the sacrifices of righteousness,
And trust in the LORD.
 

6

Many are saying, “Who will show us any good?”
Lift up the light of Your countenance upon us, O LORD!
 

7

You have put gladness in my heart,
More than when their grain and new wine abound.
 

8

In peace I will both lie down and sleep,
For You alone, O LORD, make me to dwell in safety.
