The Book of Psalms 4

Text size

1 Hear me when I call O God of my righteousness thou hast enlarged me when I was in distress have mercy upon me and hear my prayer ⚑

2 O ye sons of men how long will ye turn my glory into shame how long will ye love vanity and seek after leasing Selah ⚑

3 But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself the LORD will hear when I call unto him ⚑

4 Stand in awe and sin not commune with your own heart upon your bed and be still Selah ⚑

5 Offer the sacrifices of righteousness and put your trust in the LORD ⚑

6 There be many that say Who will shew us any good LORD lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us ⚑

7 Thou hast put gladness in my heart more than in the time that their corn and their wine increased ⚑

8 I will both lay me down in peace and sleep for thou LORD only makest me dwell in safety ⚑
