¹ For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm of David. 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 dishonour? how long will ye love vanity, and seek after falsehood? Selah³ But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD 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. Selah⁵ Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD.

⁶ Many there be that say, Who will shew us any good? LORD, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.⁷ Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than they have when their corn and their wine are increased.⁸ In peace will I both lay me down and sleep: for thou, LORD, alone makest me dwell in safety.
