Psalm 4 is titled simply as "an evening prayer". It's like a reminder to be calm, believe in God, and go to sleep. This verse in particular, however, is important.
Do what is right as a sacrifice... an interesting phrase, is it not? Doing what's right is a gift to God. And we can't do it because we're awesome, we do it because it's about God. It's not about me or what I can do, it's about God and what He does. Doing the right thing is rough quite a bit of the time. Being honest, sharing His love, standing up for your beliefs; you can't know what's going to happen.
But the fear of "what if" can't stop you from doing what's right. It's the duty you owe God. You do what's right, and trust Him to take care of the rest. That's all it is - your responsibility is to obey, He will do the rest.
