004) Psalm 4

Psalm 4 To the chief Musician onNeginoth, a Psalm of David.

8.6.8.6

1 GOD of my justice, when I call answer me: when distrest thou hast enlarg’d me, shew me grace and hear thou my request.

2 Ye sons of men, my glory turn to shame how long will you? how long will ye love vanity and still deceit pursue?

3 But know the Lord doth for himself set by his gracious saint: the Lord will hear when I to him do pour out my complaint.

4 Be stirred up, but do not sin, consider seriously within your heart upon your bed and wholly silent be.

5 Let sacrifices of justice for sacrifices be. and confidently put your trust on Jehovah do ye.

6 Many there be that say, O who will cause us good to see? the light, Lord, of thy countenance let on us lifted be.

7 Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than the time wherein their corn and also their new wine have much increased been.

8 In peace with him I will lie down, and take my sleep will I: For thou, Lord, mak’st me dwell alone in confident safety.
