# Psalm 4 (New King James Version)
The Safety of the Faithful

##### Chapter 4
###### 1 Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness!  
You have relieved me in _my_ distress;  
Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer.

###### 2 How long, O you sons of men,  
_Will you turn_ my glory to shame?  
_How long_ will you love worthlessness  
_And_ seek falsehood? _Selah_  

###### 3 But know that the Lord has set apart for Himself him who is godly;  
The Lord will hear when I call to Him.

###### 4 Be angry, and do not sin.  
Meditate within your heart on your bed, and be still. _Selah_  

###### 5 Offer the sacrifices of righteousness,  
And put your trust in the Lord.

###### 6 _There are_ many who say,  
"Who will show us _any_ good?"  
Lord, lift up the light of Your countenance upon us.  

###### 7 You have put gladness in my heart,  
More than in the season that their grain and wine increased.  

###### 8 I will both lie down in peace, and sleep;  
For You alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety.
