Psalms 4
1 Unto the end, in verses. A psalm for David. When I called upon him, the God of my justice heard me: when I was in distress, thou hast enlarged me. Have mercy on me: and hear my prayer.
To him that excelleth on Neginoth. A Psalme of Dauid. Heare me when I call, O God of my righteousnes: thou hast set me at libertie, when I was in distresse: haue mercie vpon me and hearken vnto my prayer.
2 O ye sons of men, how long will you be dull of heart? why do you love vanity, and seek after lying?
O ye sonnes of men, howe long will yee turne my glory into shame, louing vanitie, and seeking lyes? (Selah)
3 Know ye also that the Lord hath made his holy one wonderful: the Lord will hear me when I shall cry unto him.
For be ye sure that the Lord hath chosen to himselfe a godly man: the Lord will heare when I call vnto him.
4 Be angry, and sin not: the things you say in your hearts, be sorry for them upon your beds.
Tremble, and sinne not: examine your owne heart vpon your bed, and be still. (Selah)
5 Offer up the sacrifice of justice, and trust in the Lord: many say, Who sheweth us good things?
Offer the sacrifices of righteousnes, and trust in the Lord.
6 The light of thy countenance O Lord, is signed upon us: thou hast given gladness in my heart.
Many say, Who will shewe vs any good? but Lord, lift vp the light of thy countenance vpon vs.
7 By the fruit of their corn, their wine and oil, they are multiplied.
Thou hast giuen mee more ioye of heart, then they haue had, when their wheate and their wine did abound.
8 In peace in the selfsame I will sleep, and I will rest: For thou, O Lord, singularly hast settled me in hope.
I will lay mee downe, and also sleepe in peace: for thou, Lord, onely makest me dwell in safetie.
