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.
02 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.
03 But know that the Lord hath set apart him that
is godly for himself: the Lord will hear when I
call unto him.
04 Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your
own heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah.

05 Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put
your trust in the Lord.
06 There be many that say, Who will shew us any
good? Lord, lift thou up the light of thy
countenance upon us.
07 Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than
in the time that their corn and their wine
increased.
08 I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep:
for thou, Lord, only makest me dwell in safety.
