PSALMS 4

1 To the victory, in organs, the psalm of David. When I inwardly called, God of my rightwiseness heard me; in tribulation thou hast alarged to me. Have thou mercy on me; and hear thou my prayer. 2 Sons of men, how long be ye of heavy heart? why love ye vanity, and seek leasing? 3 And know ye, that the Lord hath made marvellous his holy man; the Lord shall hear me, when I shall cry to him. 4 Be ye wroth, and do not ye sin; and for those evils to which ye say in your hearts and in your beds, be ye compunct. 5 Sacrifice ye the sacrifice or Offer ye an offering of rightfulness [or right-wiseness], and hope ye in the Lord; 6 many say, Who showed good things to us? Lord, the light of thy cheer is marked upon us; 7 thou hast given gladness in mine heart. They be multiplied of the fruit of wheat, and of wine; and of their oil. 8 In peace in the same thing; I shall sleep, and take rest. For thou, Lord; hast set me singularly or only in hope.
