| | 1 | To the Chief Musician. With stringed instruments. A psalm of David. Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness! You have relieved me in my distress; Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer. | |
| | 2 | How long, O you sons of men, Will you turn my glory to shame? How long will you love worthlessness And seek falsehood? Selah | |
| | 3 | But know that the LORD has set apart for Himself him who is godly; The LORD will hear when I call to Him. | |
| | 4 | Be angry, and do not sin. Meditate within your heart on your bed, and be still. Selah | |
| | 5 | Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, And put your trust in the LORD. | |
| | 6 | There are many who say, "Who will show us any good?" LORD, lift up the light of Your countenance upon us. | |
| | 7 | You have put gladness in my heart, More than in the season that their grain and wine increased. | |
| | 8 | I will both lie down in peace, and sleep; For You alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety. | |
