3 Realize that the Lord shows the godly special favor;the Lord responds when I cry out to him.
4 Tremble with fear and do not sin!Meditate as you lie in bed, and repent of your ways! (Selah)
5 Offer the prescribed sacrificesand trust in the Lord!
6 Many say, “Who can show us anything good?”Smile upon us, Lord!
7 You make me happierthan those who have abundant grain and wine.
8 I will lie down and sleep peacefully,for you, Lord, make me safe and secure.
