1To the Overseer with Stringed Instruments. --A Psalm of David. In my calling answer Thou me, O God of my righteousness. In adversity Thou gavest enlargement to me; Favour me, and hear my prayer.

2Sons of men! till when is my glory for shame? Ye love a vain thing, ye seek a lie. Selah.

3And know ye that Jehovah Hath separated a saintly one to Himself. Jehovah heareth in my calling to Him.

4`Tremble ye, and do not sin;' Say ye thus in your heart on your bed, And be ye silent. Selah.

5Sacrifice ye sacrifices of righteousness, And trust ye unto Jehovah.

6Many are saying, `Who doth show us good?' Lift on us the light of Thy face, O Jehovah,

7Thou hast given joy in my heart, From the time their corn and their wine Have been multiplied.

8In peace together I lie down and sleep, For Thou, O Jehovah, alone, In confidence dost cause me to dwell!
