Psalms 4

PSALM 4

Put Your Hope in The LORD

For the director in hymns; a psalm to David.

1 In my calling, [⁴heard ⁵me ¹the ²God ³of my righteousness]; in affliction he widened me. Pity me, and hear my prayer! 2 O sons of men, until when will you ease being heavy hearted? Why do you love folly, and you seek a lie? 3 And know! that the lord did a wonder for his sacred one. The lord shall hear me in my crying out to him. 4 Be angry, and do not sin! What you say in your hearts, [²upon ³your beds ¹Let be vexed]! PAUSE. 5 Sacrifice a sacrifice of righteousness, and hope on the lord! 6 Many say, Who shall show to us good things? [⁴was signified ⁵to ⁶us ¹The ²light ³of your face], O lord. 7 You put gladness into my heart. Of the fruit of the grain, wine and olive oil -- [²of them ¹they were filled]. 8 In peace [²at ³the ⁴same place ¹I will go to bed] and sleep. For you, O lord, alone [³with ⁴hope ¹settled ²me].
