1[[To the Heavenly Worship Leader on N’ginot [stringed instruments], A Psalm (sacred song about or to God) of David [Beloved].]] Hear me when I call, O God-Elohe Tzd’ki [The Living Word My Righteousness]: youⁱ have enlarged me [when I was] in distress; have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.

2O you^2f sons of men, how long [will you^2f turn] my glory into shame? [how long] will you^2f love vanity, [and] seek after falsehood (deceit; lying)? Selah [stop and diligently consider what was just said].

3But know that the LORD-Yehovah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] has set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD-Yehovah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] will hear when I call unto him.

4Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah [stop and diligently consider what was just said].

5Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD-Yehovah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate].

6[There be] many that say, Who will show us [any] good? LORD-Yehovah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate], lift youⁱ up the light of yourⁱ Countenance (Face, appearance; show favor) upon us.

7youⁱ have put gladness in my heart, more than in the time [that] their corn and their wine increased.

8I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for youⁱ, LORD-Yehovah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate], only makes me dwell in safety.
