Psalm 4 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

Evening Prayer of Trust in God.

^[a]For the music director; on stringed instruments. A Psalm of David.

4 ^(A)Answer me when ^(B)I call, God ^[b]of my righteousness!
You have ^[c]^(C)relieved me in my distress;
Be ^(D)gracious to me and ^(E)hear my prayer.

²You sons of man, how long will ^(F)my ^[d]honor be treated as ^(G)an insult?
How long will you love ^(H)what is worthless and strive for a ^(I)lie? Selah
³But know that the Lord has ^[e]^(J)set apart the ^(K)godly person for Himself;
The Lord ^(L)hears when I call to Him.

⁴^[f]^(M)Tremble, ^[g]^(N)and do not sin;
^[h]^(O)Meditate in your heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah
⁵Offer ^[i]the ^(P)sacrifices of righteousness,
And ^(Q)trust in the Lord.

⁶Many are saying, “^(R)Who will show us anything good?”
^(S)Lift up the light of Your face upon us, Lord!
⁷You have put ^(T)joy in my heart,
More than when their grain and new wine are abundant.
⁸In peace I will ^[j]both ^(U)lie down and sleep,
For You alone, Lord, have me ^(V)dwell in safety.
