International Standard VersionChristian Standard Bible
1When I call, answer me, my righteous God! When I was in distress, you set me free. Be gracious to me and hear my prayer.1Answer me when I call, God, who vindicates me. You freed me from affliction; be gracious to me and hear my prayer.
2You people, how long will you malign my reputation? How long will you love what is vain and what is false? Interlude2How long, exalted ones, will my honor be insulted? How long will you love what is worthless and pursue a lie? Selah
3But understand this: the LORD has set apart the godly for himself! The LORD will hear me when I cry out to him!3Know that the LORD has set apart the faithful for himself; the LORD will hear when I call to him.
4Be angry, yet do not sin. Think about this when upon your beds, and be silent. Interlude4Be angry and do not sin; on your bed, reflect in your heart and be still. Selah
5Offer sacrifices that are righteous, and put your confidence in the LORD.5Offer sacrifices in righteousness and trust in the LORD.
6Many are asking, "Who will help us to see better days?" LORD, may the light of your favor shine upon us.6Many are asking, "Who can show us anything good?" Let the light of your face shine on us, LORD.
7You have given me more joy in my heart than at harvest times, when grain and wine abound.7You have put more joy in my heart than they have when their grain and new wine abound.
8I will lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone, LORD, enable me to live securely.8I will both lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone, LORD, make me live in safety.
