2How long, exalted ones, will my honor be insulted? How long will you love what is worthless and pursue a lie? Selah2O sons of men, how long will my honor become a reproach? How long will you love what is worthless and aim at deception? Selah.
3Know that the LORD has set apart the faithful for himself; the LORD will hear when I call to him.3But know that the LORD has set apart the godly man for Himself; The LORD hears when I call to Him.
4Be angry and do not sin; on your bed, reflect in your heart and be still. Selah4Tremble, and do not sin; Meditate in your heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah.
5Offer sacrifices in righteousness and trust in the LORD.5Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, And trust in the LORD.
6Many are asking, "Who can show us anything good?" Let the light of your face shine on us, LORD.6Many are saying, "Who will show us any good?" Lift up the light of Your countenance upon us, O LORD!
7You have put more joy in my heart than they have when their grain and new wine abound.7You have put gladness in my heart, More than when their grain and new wine abound.
8I will both lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone, LORD, make me live in safety.8In peace I will both lie down and sleep, For You alone, O LORD, make me to dwell in safety.
