4:1 For the director of music. With stringed instruments. A psalm of David. Answer me when I pray to you, my God who does what is right. Make things easier for me when I am in trouble. Have mercy on me and hear my prayer.
4:2 People, how long will you turn my honor into shame? How long will you love what is false and look for new lies? Selah
4:3 You know that the Lord has chosen for himself those who are loyal to him. The Lord listens when I pray to him.
4:4 When you are angry, do not sin. Think about these things quietly as you go to bed. Selah
4:5 Do what is right as a sacrifice to the Lord and trust the Lord.
4:6 Many people ask, “Who will give us anything good?” Lord, be kind to us.
4:7 But you have made me very happy, happier than they are, even with all their grain and new wine.
4:8 I go to bed and sleep in peace, because, Lord, only you keep me safe.
