[[To him that excelleth on Neginoth.] A Psalm Chapter of David.][1]Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness: thou hast set me at liberty, when I was in distress: have mercy upon me and hearken unto my prayer.[2]O ye sons of men, how long will ye turn my glory into shame, loving vanity, and seeking lies? Selah.[3]For be ye sure that the Lord hath chosen to himself a godly man: the Lord will hear when I call unto him.[4]Tremble, and sin not: examine your own heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah.[5]Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and trust in the Lord.[6]Many say, Who will show us any good? But Lord, lift up the light of thy countenance upon us.[7]Thou hast given me more joy of heart, then they have had, when their wheat and their wine did abound.[8]I will lay me down, and also sleep in peace: for thou, Lord, only makest me dwell in safety.
