For the End, a Song of David among [the] Psalms.

4:1 When I called upon [him], the God of my righteousness heard me: thou hast made room for me in tribulation; pity me, and hearken to my prayer.

4:2 O ye sons on men, how long [will ye be] slow of heart? wherefore do ye love vanity, and seek falsehood? Pause.

4:3 But know ye that the Lord has done wondrous things for his holy one: the Lord will hear me when I cry to him.

4:4 Be ye angry, and sin not; feel compunction upon your beds for what ye say in your hearts. Pause.

4:5 Offer the sacrifice of righteousness, and trust in the Lord.

4:6 Many say, Who will shew us good things? the light of thy countenance, O Lord, has been manifested towards us.

4:7 Thou hast put gladness into my heart: they have been satisfied with the fruit of their corn and wine and oil.

4:8 I will both lie down in peace and sleep: for thou, Lord, only hast caused me to dwell securely.

To the chief Musician on Neginoth, A Psalm of David.

4:1 Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness: thou hast enlarged me when I was in distress; have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.

4:2 O ye sons of men, how long will ye turn my glory into shame? how long will ye love vanity, and seek after leasing? Selah.

4:3 But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD will hear when I call unto him.

4:4 Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah.

4:5 Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD.

4:6 There be many that say, Who will shew us any good? LORD, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.

4:7 Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than in the time that their corn and their wine increased.

4:8 I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety.
