Psalms 4

  1. 1

    For the music director, to be accompanied by stringed instruments; a psalm of David. When I call out, answer me, O God who vindicates me. Though I am hemmed in, you will lead me into a wide, open place. Have mercy on me and respond to my prayer.

  2. 2

    You men, how long will you try to turn my honor into shame? How long will you love what is worthless and search for what is deceptive? (Selah)

  3. 3

    Realize that the Lord shows the godly special favor; the Lord responds when I cry out to him.

  4. 4

    Tremble with fear and do not sin. Meditate as you lie in bed, and repent of your ways. (Selah)

  5. 5

    Offer the prescribed sacrifices and trust in the Lord.

  6. 6

    Many say, “Who can show us anything good?” Smile upon us, Lord!

  7. 7

    You make me happier than those who have abundant grain and wine.

  8. 8

    I will lie down and sleep peacefully, for you, Lord, make me safe and secure.
