Encouragement from Psalms 6-3-24

Psalm 4

New King James Version

The Safety of the Faithful

To the [a]Chief Musician. With stringed instruments. A Psalm of David.

4 Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness!

You have relieved me in my distress;

[b]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 [c]set apart for Himself him who is godly;

The Lord will hear when I call to Him.

4 Be[d] 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.
