1When I called upon him, the God of my righteousness heard me: you have made room for me in tribulation; pity me, and listen to my prayer.
2O you sons of men, how long will you be slow of heart? therefore do you love vanity, and seek falsehood? Pause.
3But know you that the Lord has done wondrous things for his holy one: the Lord will hear me when I cry to him.
4Be you angry, and sin not; feel compunction upon your beds for what you say in your hearts. Pause.
5Offer the sacrifice of righteousness, and trust in the Lord.
6Many say, Who will show us good things? the light of your countenance, O Lord, has been manifested towards us.
7You have put gladness into my heart: they have been satisfied with the fruit of their corn and wine and oil.
8I will both lie down in peace and sleep: for you, Lord, only have caused me to dwell securely.
