Psalms - Chapter 4 | Good News Translation

  • 1. Answer me when I pray, O God, my defender! When I was in trouble, you helped me. Be kind to me now and hear my prayer.
  • 2. How long will you people insult me? How long will you love what is worthless and go after what is false?
  • 3. Remember that the LORD has chosen the righteous for his own, and he hears me when I call to him.
  • 4. Tremble with fear and stop sinning; think deeply about this, when you lie in silence on your beds.
  • 5. Offer the right sacrifices to the LORD, and put your trust in him.
  • 6. There are many who pray: "Give us more blessings, O LORD. Look on us with kindness!"
  • 7. But the joy that you have given me is more than they will ever have with all their grain and wine.
  • 8. When I lie down, I go to sleep in peace; you alone, O LORD, keep me perfectly safe.
