Psalms 4

¹For the music director; with stringed instruments. A psalm of David. When I call, answer me, O God of my righteousness. In trouble ⌞deliver me⌟. Be gracious to me and hear my prayer. ²O sons of man, how long will my honor be a disgrace? How long will you love vanity? How long will you seek lies? Selah ³But know that Yahweh has set apart for himself the faithful one. Yahweh hears when I call to him. ⁴Be disturbed but do not sin. Commune in your heart on your bed and be silent. Selah ⁵Offer correct sacrifices, and ⌞trust in⌟ Yahweh. ⁶Many are saying, “Who will show us something good?” Lift up over us the light of your face, O Yahweh. ⁷You have put gladness in my heart more than ⌞when⌟ their grain and their wine abound. ⁸In peace I will lie down and sleep ⌞at once⌟, for you alone, O Yahweh, make me dwell safely.
