Context
Psalm 4
4:1 For the music director , to be accompanied by stringed instruments ; a psalm of David . When I call out , answer me, O God who vindicates me! Though I am hemmed in, you will lead me into a wide , open place. Have mercy on me and respond to my prayer !
4:2 You men , how long will you try to turn my honor into shame ? How long will you love what is worthless and search for what is deceptive ? (Selah )
4:3 Realize that the Lord shows the godly special favor ; the Lord responds when I cry out to him.
4:4 Tremble with fear and do not sin ! Meditate as you lie in bed , and repent of your ways ! (Selah )
4:5 Offer the prescribed sacrifices and trust in the Lord !
