1  Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness, Thou who didst set me free when I was in distress; be gracious unto me, and hear my prayer.

title  For the End, a Song of David among the Psalms.

1  When I called upon him, the God of my righteousness heard me: thou hast made room for me in tribulation; pity me, and hearken to my prayer.

2  O ye sons of men, how long shall my glory be put to shame, in that ye love vanity, and seek after falsehood? Selah

Ps4:2  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?

2  Men, how long will you obscure my glory? how long will you love vanity? do you want deception forever?

3  But know that YHWH hath set apart the godly man as His own; the YHWH will hear when I call unto Him.

3  But know ye that the Lord has done wondrous things for his holy one: the Lord will hear me when I cry to him.

Ps4:3  And know this: the Lord has made wondrous his holy one. The Lord will heed me when I cry out to him.

4  Tremble, and sin not; commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah

4  Be ye angry, and sin not; feel compunction upon your beds for what ye say in your hearts. Pause.

Ps4:4  Be angry, and do not be willing to sin. The things that you say in your hearts: be sorry for them on your beds.

5  Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in YHWH.

Ps4:5  Offer the sacrifice of justice, and hope in the Lord. Many say, “Who reveals to us what is good?”

6  Many there are that say: 'Oh that we could see some good!' YHWH, lift Thou up the light of Thy countenance upon us.

6  Many say, Who will shew us good things? the light of thy countenance, O Lord, has been manifested towards us.

Ps4:6  The light of your countenance, Lord, has been sealed upon us. You have given joy to my heart.

7  Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than when their corn and their wine increase.

Ps4:7  By the fruit of their grain, wine, and oil, they have been multiplied.

7  O LORD, thou hast put gladness in my heart more than in the time that their wheat and their wine and their oil increased.

8  In peace will I both lay me down and sleep; for Thou, YHWH, makest me dwell alone in safety.

8  I will both lie down in peace and sleep: for thou, Lord, only hast caused me to dwell securely.

8  In peace itself, I will sleep and I will rest.

9  For you, O Lord, have established me singularly in hope.
