Psalm 4

O my righteous GOD, please answer when I call to you, and give me relief from my distress. Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer. How long will men dishonor my GLORIOUS ONE? How long will they love vanity and pursue lies? You can be sure that the LORD has set apart the godly for himself. The LORD will hear when I call to him. In your anger do not sin, but search your own heart overnight and remain silent. Offer the sacrifices of righteousness. Put your trust in the LORD, while many ask to be shown better times. O LORD, let the light of your face shine on us. You have filled my heart with joy, more joy than when grain and wine abound. In peace I lie down and sleep, for you alone, LORD, will keep me safe.
