Psalm 4 — The Holy Bible

For the End; in psalms; an ode by David.

You heard me when I called, O God of my righteousness.

You strengthened my heart when I was in distress;

Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer.

How long, O you sons of men,

Will you be slow of heart?

Why do you love vain things

And seek after lies?

Know that the Lord made His Holy One wondrous;

The Lord will hear me when I cry to Him.

Be angry, and do not sin;

Have remorse upon your beds

For what you say in your hearts.

(Pause)

Offer the sacrifice of righteousness,

And hope in the Lord.

There are many who say, “Who will show us good things?”

O Lord, the light of Your face was stamped upon us.

You put gladness in my heart;

From their season of wheat, wine, and oil they were multiplied.

I will both sleep and rest in peace,

For You alone, O Lord, cause me to dwell in hope.
