I
will lie down and sleep in
peace, for you alone, 0 LORD,
make me dwell in safety. (Psalm
4:8)
I lie down and sleep; I wake
again, because the LORD sustains
me. (Psalm 3:5)
I will praise the LORD who
counsels me; even at night my
heart instructs me. (Psalm 16:7)
By
day the LORD directs his love,
at night his song is with me --a
prayer to the God of my life.
(Psalm 42:8)
The
sleep of a laborer is sweet,
whether he eats little or much,
but the abundance of a rich man
permits him no sleep.
(Ecclesiastes 5:12)
In
vain you rise early and stay up
late, toiling for food to eat -
for he grants sleep to those he
loves. (Psalm 127:2)
He
who dwells in the shelter of the
Most High will rest in the
shadow of the Almighty. (Psalm
91:1)
