1« To the chief Musician on Neginoth, A Psalm of David.» 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. 2O ye sons of men, how long [will ye turn] my glory into shame? [how long] will ye love vanity, [and] seek after leasing? Selah. 3But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD will hear when I call unto him. 4Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah. 5Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD. 6[There be] many that say, Who will shew us [any] good? LORD, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us. 7Thou hast giuen mee more ioye of heart, then they haue had, when their wheate and their wine did abound. 8I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety.
