Answer Me When I Call
To the achoirmaster: with astringed instruments. A Psalm of David.
Answer me when I call, O God of my brighteousness!
You have cgiven me relief when I was in distress.
Be gracious to me and hear my prayer!
2 O men, how long shall my honor be turned into shame?
How long will you love vain words and seek after alies? Selah
3 But know that the Lord has aset apart bthe godly for himself;
the Lord hears when I call to him.
4 aBe angry, and do not sin;
bponder in your own hearts con your beds, and be silent. Selah
5 Offer aright sacrifices,
and put your btrust in the Lord.
6 There are many who say, “Who will show us some good?
aLift up bthe light of your face upon us, O Lord!”
7 You have put amore joy in my heart
than they have when their grain and wine abound.
8 In peace I will both alie down and sleep;
for you alone, O Lord, make me bdwell in safety.
