New International Version

1Answer me when I call to you, O my righteous God. Give me relief from my distress; be merciful to me and hear my prayer. 2How long, O men, will you turn my glory into shame? How long will you love delusions and seek false gods? Selah 3Know that the LORD has set apart the godly for himself; the LORD will hear when I call to him. 4In your anger do not sin; when you are on your beds, search your hearts and be silent. Selah 5Offer right sacrifices and trust in the LORD. 6Many are asking, "Who can show us any good?" Let the light of your face shine upon us, O LORD. 7You have filled my heart with greater joy than when their grain and new wine abound. 8I will lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety.
Psalms 4 (NIV)
