Psalm 4. Cum invocarem.

1. HEAR me when I call, O God of my righteousness: *
   thou hast set me at liberty when I was in trouble; have mercy upon me, and hearken unto my prayer.
2. O ye sons of men, how long will ye blaspheme mine honour, *
   and have such pleasure in vanity, and seek after falsehood?
3. Know this also, that the Lord hath chosen to himself the man that is godly; *
   when I call upon the Lord he will hear me.
4. Stand in awe, and sin not; *
   commune with your own heart, and in your chamber, and be still.
5. Offer the sacrifice of righteousness, *
   and put your trust in the Lord.
6. There be many that say, *
   Who will show us any good?
7. Lord, lift thou up *
   the light of thy countenance upon us.
8. Thou hast put gladness in my heart; *
   yea, more than when their corn and wine and oil increase.
9. I will lay me down in peace, and take my rest; *
   for it is thou, Lord, only, that makest me dwell in safety.
