Psalms 4

World English Bible (WEB)

1 Ref > Answer me when I call, God of my righteousness. Give me relief from my distress. Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer.

2 Ref You sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonor? Will you love vanity, and seek after falsehood? Selah.

3 Ref But know that Yahweh has set apart for himself him who is godly: Yahweh will hear when I call to him.

4 Ref Stand in awe, and don't sin. Search your own heart on your bed, and be still. Selah.

5 Ref Offer the sacrifices of righteousness. Put your trust in Yahweh.

6 Ref Many say, "Who will show us any good?" Yahweh, let the light of your face shine on us.

7 Ref You have put gladness in my heart, More than when their grain and their new wine are increased.

8 Ref In peace I will both lay myself down and sleep, For you, Yahweh alone, make me live in safety.
