| 1 | In parts according to verses. A Psalm of David. <V 4:2>When I called upon him, the God of my justice heeded me. In tribulation, you have enlarged me. Have mercy on me, and heed my prayer. | Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness! You have given me relief when I was in distress. Be gracious to me and hear my prayer! | For the director of music. With stringed instruments. A psalm of David. Answer me when I call to you, my righteous God. Give me relief from my distress; have mercy on me and hear my prayer. | |
| 2 | <V 4:3>Sons of men, how long will you be dull in heart, so that whatever you love is in vain, and whatever you seek is false? | O men, how long shall my honor be turned into shame? How long will you love vain words and seek after lies? Selah | How long will you people turn my glory into shame? How long will you love delusions and seek false gods | |
| 3 | <V 4:4>And know this: the Lord has made wondrous his holy one. The Lord will heed me when I cry out to him. | But know that the LORD has set apart the godly for himself; the LORD hears when I call to him. | Know that the LORD has set apart his faithful servant for himself; the LORD hears when I call to him. | |
| 4 | <V 4:5>Be angry, and do not be willing to sin. The things that you say in your hearts: be sorry for them on your beds. | Be angry, and do not sin; ponder in your own hearts on your beds, and be silent. Selah | Tremble and do not sin; when you are on your beds, search your hearts and be silent. | |
| 5 | <V 4:6>Offer the sacrifice of justice, and hope in the Lord. Many say, “Who reveals to us what is good?” | Offer right sacrifices, and put your trust in the LORD. | Offer the sacrifices of the righteous and trust in the LORD. | |
| 6 | <V 4:7>The light of your countenance, Lord, has been sealed upon us. You have given joy to my heart. | There are many who say, “Who will show us some good? Lift up the light of your face upon us, O LORD!” | Many, LORD, are asking, “Who will bring us prosperity?” Let the light of your face shine on us. | |
| 7 | <V 4:8>By the fruit of their grain, wine, and oil, they have been multiplied. | You have put more joy in my heart than they have when their grain and wine abound. | Fill my heart with joy when their grain and new wine abound. | |
| 8 | <V 4:9>In peace itself, I will sleep and I will rest. <V 4:10>For you, O Lord, have established me singularly in hope. | In peace I will both lie down and sleep; for you alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety. | In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, LORD, make me dwell in safety. | |
