When I call, answer me, O God of my righteousness: in pressure thou hast enlarged me; be gracious unto me, and hear my prayer.

Ye sons of men, till when is my glory [to be put] to shame? [How long] will ye love vanity, will ye seek after a lie? Selah.

But know that Jehovah hath set apart the pious [man] for himself: Jehovah will hear when I call unto him.

Be moved with anger, and sin not; meditate in your own hearts upon your bed, and be still. Selah.

Offer sacrifices of righteousness, and confide in Jehovah.

Many say, Who shall cause us to see good? Lift up upon us the light of thy countenance, O Jehovah.

Thou hast put joy in my heart, more than in the time that their corn and their new wine was in abundance.

In peace will I both lay me down and sleep; for thou, Jehovah, alone makest me to dwell in safety.

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 shew 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.
