Psalm 4

Revised Geneva Translation

4 Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness. You have set me at liberty when I was in distress. Have mercy upon me and hear my prayer.

² O you sons of men, how long will you turn my glory into shame, loving vanity and seeking lies? Selah.

³ But know that the LORD has chosen for Himself a godly man. The LORD will hear when I call to Him.

⁴ Tremble and do not sin. Examine your own heart upon your bed and be still. Selah.

⁵ Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and trust in the LORD.

⁶ Many say, “Who will show us good?” LORD, lift up the light of Your countenance upon us.

⁷ You have given me more joy of heart than when their wheat and their wine abounded.

⁸ I will lay down, and also sleep, in peace. For You only, LORD, make me dwell in safety. To him who excels upon Nehiloth: A Psalm of David.
