¹ When I call out, answer me, O God who vindicates me! Though I am hemmed in, you will lead me into a wide, open place. Have mercy on me and respond to my prayer! ² You men, how long will you try to turn my honor into shame? How long will you love what is worthless and search for what is deceptive? (Selah) ³ Realize that the LORD shows the godly special favor; the LORD responds when I cry out to him. ⁴ Tremble with fear and do not sin! Meditate as you lie in bed, and repent of your ways! (Selah) ⁵ Offer the prescribed sacrifices and trust in the LORD! ⁶ Many say, "Who can show us anything good?" Smile upon us, LORD! ⁷ You make me happier than those who have abundant grain and wine. ⁸ I will lie down and sleep peacefully, for you, LORD, make me safe and secure.
