1 Answer me when I call, O God of my right! You gave me room when I was
in distress. Be gracious to me, and hear my prayer.
2 How long, you people, shall my honour suffer shame? How long will you
love vain words, and seek after lies? Selah
3 But know that the LORD has set apart the faithful for himself; the LORD hears
when I call to him.
4 When you are disturbed, do not sin; ponder it on your beds, and be silent.
Selah
5 Offer right sacrifices, and put your trust in the LORD.
6 There are many who say, ‘O that we might see some good!
Let the light of your face shine on us, O LORD!’
7 You have put gladness in my heart
more than when their grain and wine abound.
8 I will both lie down and sleep in peace;
for you alone, O LORD, make me lie down in safety.
