¹Answer me when I call, O God of my right!

You gave me room when I was in distress.

Be gracious to me, and hear my prayer.

²How long, you people, shall my honour suffer shame?

How long will you love vain words, and seek after lies? Selah

³But know that the LORD has set apart the faithful for himself;

the LORD hears when I call to him.

⁴When you are disturbed, do not sin;

ponder it on your beds, and be silent. Selah

⁵Offer right sacrifices,

and put your trust in the LORD.

⁶There are many who say, ‘O that we might see some good!

Let the light of your face shine on us, O LORD!’

⁷You have put gladness in my heart

more than when their grain and wine abound.

⁸I will both lie down and sleep in peace;

for you alone, O LORD, make me lie down in safety.
