Psalm 4:2-4
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
I
2 Answer me when I call, my saving God.
When troubles hem me in, set me free;
take pity on me, hear my prayer.(A)
II
3 How long, O people, will you be hard of heart?
Why do you love what is worthless, chase after lies?[a](B)
Selah
4 Know that the Lord works wonders for his faithful one;
the Lord hears when I call out to him.
Footnotes
- 4:3 Love what is worthless…lies: these expressions probably refer to false gods worshiped by those the psalmist is addressing.
