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.
2How long will you people turn my glory into shame? How long will you love delusions and seek false gods2O ye sons of men, how long will ye turn my glory into shame? how long will ye love vanity, and seek after leasing? Selah.
3Know that the LORD has set apart his faithful servant for himself; the LORD hears when I call to him.3But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD will hear when I call unto him.
4Tremble and do not sin; when you are on your beds, search your hearts and be silent.4Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah.

6Many, LORD, are asking, "Who will bring us prosperity?" Let the light of your face shine on us.6There be many that say, Who will shew us any good? LORD, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.
7Fill my heart with joy when their grain and new wine abound.7Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than in the time that their corn and their wine increased.
8In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, LORD, make me dwell in safety.8I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety.
