To the chief Musician[H5329] on Neginoth[H5058], A Psalm[H4210] of David[H1732]. Hear[H6030] me when I call[H7121], O God[H430] of my righteousness[H6664]: thou hast enlarged[H7337] me when I was in distress[H6862]; have mercy[H2603] upon me, and hear[H8085] my prayer[H8605].
2
O ye sons[H1121] of men[H376], how long[H5704] will ye turn my glory[H3519] into shame?[H3639] how long[H5704] will ye love[H157]vanity[H7385], and seek[H1245] after leasing?[H3577]Selah[H5542].
3
But know[H3045] that the LORD[H3068] hath set apart[H6395] him that is godly[H2623] for himself: the LORD[H3068] will hear[H8085] when I call[H7121] unto him.
4
Stand in awe[H7264], and sin[H2398] not: commune[H559] with your own heart[H3824] upon your bed[H4904], and be still[H1826]. Selah[H5542].
5Offer[H2076] the sacrifices[H2077] of righteousness[H6664], and put your trust[H982] in the LORD[H3068].
6
There be many[H7227] that say[H559], Who will shew[H7200] us any good?[H2896]LORD[H3068], lift thou up[H5375] the light[H216] of thy countenance[H6440] upon us.
7
Thou hast put[H5414]gladness[H8057] in my heart[H3820], more than in the time[H6256] that their corn[H1715] and their wine[H8492]increased[H7231].
8
I will both[H3162] lay me down[H7901] in peace[H7965], and sleep[H3462]: for thou, LORD[H3068], only[H910] makest me dwell[H3427] in safety[H983].
