For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm of
David.
1 Answer me when I
call, O God of my righteousness;
Thou hast set me at large [when I was] in distress:
Have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.
2 O ye sons of men, how
long shall my glory be turned into
dishonor?
[How long] will ye love vanity, and seek after falsehood?
3 But
know that Jehovah hath set apart for himself him that
is godly:
Jehovah will hear when I call unto him.
4 Stand in awe, and sin
not:
Commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still.
5 Offer
the sacrifices of righteousness,
And put your trust in Jehovah.
6 Many there are that
say, Who will show us [any] good?
Jehovah, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.
7 Thou hast put gladness
in my heart,
More than [they have] when their grain and their new wine are
increased.
8 In peace will I both
lay me down and sleep;
For thou, Jehovah, alone makest me dwell in safety.
