| Chapter 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. |
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. |
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 | Stand in awe,
and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still.
Selah. |
5 |
Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in
the LORD. |
6
| There be many that say, Who will shew us any good? LORD,
lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us. |
7 | Thou hast put
gladness in my heart, more than in the time that their corn and their wine
increased. |
8
| I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou,
LORD, only makest me dwell in safety. |
