| To the chief Musician on
Neginoth, A Psalm of David. Hear me when I call,
O God of my righteousness: thou hast enlarged me
when I was in distress; have mercy upon me, and
hear my prayer. |
| O ye sons of men, how long
will ye turn my glory into shame? how long will
ye love vanity, and seek after leasing? Selah. |
| But know that the LORD hath
set apart him that is godly for himself: the
LORD will hear when I call unto him. |
| Stand in awe, and sin not:
commune with your own heart upon your bed, and
be still. Selah. |
| Offer the sacrifices of
righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD. |
| There be many that say, Who
will show us any good? LORD, lift thou up the
light of thy countenance upon us. |
| Thou hast put gladness in
my heart, more than in the time that their corn
and their wine increased. |
| I will both lay me down in
peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me
dwell in safety. |
