Psalm Ps. 4. This psalm expresses quiet trust amid troubling circumstances, combining the categories of individual lament and confidence.
Ps. 4:1 Because of their past experience with the Lord (You have given me relief), the faithful can pray confidently (Answer me when I call and Be gracious to me and hear my prayer). Compare 3:7.
Ps. 4:3 set apart. God gives his special attention and affection to a person or a people in order to distinguish them. The Hebrew word for the godly is related to the Hebrew word for “steadfast love.” Thus “the godly” are those who have sincerely responded to God’s steadfast love.
Ps. 4:4 Be angry, and do not sin. That is, “Even if you are angry at those who slander you, do not sin by seeking revenge.” The way to prevent such sin is to ponder and be silent: that is, reflect on how trustworthy the Lord has been. See Eph. 4:26.
Ps. 4:7 True joy is not the result of material wealth. Rather, joy comes from knowing the Lord’s presence (v. 6) and peace.
