Psalm 4 - NKJV Bible Online

Psalm 4

To the ¹Chief Musician. With stringed instruments. A Psalm of David.

Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness!

You have relieved me in my distress;

²Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer.

How long, O you sons of men,

Will you turn my glory to shame?

How long will you love worthlessness

And seek falsehood?

Selah

But know that ^athe Lord has ¹set apart for Himself him who is godly;

The Lord will hear when I call to Him.

^aBe¹ angry, and do not sin.

^bMeditate within your heart on your bed, and be still.

Selah

Offer ^athe sacrifices of righteousness,

And ^bput your trust in the Lord.

There are many who say,

“Who will show us any good?”

^aLord, lift up the light of Your countenance upon us.

You have put ^agladness in my heart,

More than in the season that their grain and wine increased.

^aI will both lie down in peace, and sleep;

^bFor You alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety.
