To the Chief Musician. With stringed instruments. A Psalm of David.
1	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.
8	I will both lie down in peace, and sleep; For You alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety.
