# Chapter 4
|
|
1 Answer me when I call,
|
|
God, who vindicates me.
|
|
You freed me from affliction;
|
|
be gracious to me and hear my prayer.
|
|
2 How long, exalted ones, will my honor be insulted?
|
|
How long will you love what is worthless
|
|
and pursue a lie? Selah
|
|
3 Know that the Lord has set apart
|
|
the faithful for himself;
|
|
the Lord will hear when I call to him.
|
|
4 Be angry and do not sin;
|
|
reflect in your heart while on your bed and be silent. Selah
|
|
5 Offer sacrifices in righteousness
|
|
and trust in the Lord.
|
|
6 Many are asking, “Who can show us anything good?”
|
|
Let the light of your face shine on us, Lord.
|
|
7 You have put more joy in my heart
|
|
than they have when their grain and new wine abound.
|
|
8 I will both lie down and sleep in peace,
|
|
for you alone, Lord, make me live in safety. |
