To the Chief Musician. With stringed instruments. A psalm of David. Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness! You have relieved me in my distress; Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer.
2
How long, O you sons of men, Will you turn my glory to shame? How long will you love worthlessness And seek falsehood? Selah
3
But know that the Lord has set apart for Himself him who is godly; The Lord will hear when I call to Him.
4
Be angry, and do not sin. Meditate within your heart on your bed, and be still. Selah
5
Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, And put your trust in the Lord.
6
There are many who say, "Who will show us any good?" Lord, lift up the light of Your countenance upon us.
7
You have put gladness in my heart, More than in the season that their grain and wine increased.
