- Chapter 4 -

Answer me when I call!

1
Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness! You have relieved my distress; show me grace and hear my prayer.
2
How long, O men, will my honor be maligned? How long will you love vanity and seek after lies (a)?
3
Selah Know that the LORD has set apart the godly for Himself; the LORD hears when I call to Him.
4
Be angry, yet do not sin;(b) on your bed, search your heart and be still.
5
Selah Offer the sacrifices of the righteous and trust in the LORD.
6
Many ask, “Who can show us the good?” Shine the light of Your face upon us, O LORD.
7
You have filled my heart with more joy than when grain and new wine abound.
8
I will lie down and sleep in peace, for You alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety.
