1 Answer me when I call, God of my righteousness.Give me relief from my distress.Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer.
2 You sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonor?Will you love vanity, and seek after 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 Stand in awe, and don’t sin.Search your own heart on your bed, and be still.Selah.
5 Offer the sacrifices of righteousness.Put your trust in the LORD.
6 Many say, “Who will show us any good?”LORD, let the light of your face shine on us.
7 You have put gladness in my heart,more than when their grain and their new wine are increased.
8 In peace I will both lay myself down and sleep,for you, the LORD alone, make me live in safety. |
