Summary: Our God is the only awesome Person in this Universe
Ps 4:1-8
1Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness! Thou hast relieved me in my distress; be gracious to me and hear my prayer.
2O sons of men, how long will my honor become a reproach? {How long} will you love what is worthless and aim at deception? Selah.
3But know that the LORD has set apart the godly man for himself; the LORD hears when I call to Him.
4Tremble, and do not sin; meditate in your heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah.
5Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and trust in the LORD.
6Many are saying, "Who will show us {any} good?" Lift up the light of Thy countenance upon us, O LORD!
7Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than when their grain and new wine abound.
8In peace I will both lie down and sleep, for Thou alone, O LORD, dost make me to dwell in safety.
