Psalm 4, NEW INTERNATIONAL VERSION
Prior Chapter  |  Next Chapter

1

Answer me when I call to you,
O my righteous God.
Give me relief from my distress;
be merciful to me and hear my prayer.
 

2

How long, O men, will you turn my glory into shame?
How long will you love delusions and seek false gods?
Selah
 

3

Know that the LORD has set apart the godly for himself;
the LORD will hear when I call to him.
 

4

In your anger do not sin;
when you are on your beds,
search your hearts and be silent.
Selah
 

5

Offer right sacrifices
and trust in the LORD.
 

6

Many are asking, “Who can show us any good?”
Let the light of your face shine upon us, O LORD.
 

7

You have filled my heart with greater joy
than when their grain and new wine abound.
 

8

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