Psalms 4

To the chief Musician on Neginoth, A Psalm of David.chief…: or, overseer.

1HearH6030 me when I callH7121, O GodH430 of my righteousnessH6664: thou hast enlargedH7337 me when I was in distressH6862; have mercyH2603 upon me, and hearH8085 my prayerH8605.1

2O ye sonsH1121 of menH376, how longH5704 will ye turn my gloryH3519 into shameH3639? how long will ye loveH157 vanityH7385, and seekH1245 after a lieH3577? SelahH5542.

3But knowH3045 that YhwhH3068 hath set apartH6395 him that is godlyH2623 for himself: YhwhH3068 will hearH8085 when I callH7121 unto him.

4Stand in aweH7264, and sinH2398 not: communeH559 with your own heartH3824 upon your bedH4904, and be stillH1826. SelahH5542.

5OfferH2076 the sacrificesH2077 of righteousnessH6664, and put your trustH982 in YhwhH3068.

6There be manyH7227 that sayH559, Who will shewH7200 us any goodH2896? YhwhH3068, lift thou upH5375 the lightH216 of thy countenanceH6440 upon us.

7Thou hast putH5414 gladnessH8057 in my heartH3820, more than in the timeH6256 that their grainH1715 and their wineH8492 increasedH7231.

8I will bothH3162 lay me downH7901 in peaceH7965, and sleepH3462: for thou, YhwhH3068, onlyH910 makest me dwellH3427 in safetyH983.
