An Evening Prayer of Trust in God |
To the chief Musician on Neg'inoth, A Psalm of David. |
|
1 | Hear me when I call,
|
O God of my righteousness: |
thou hast enlarged me when I was in distress; |
have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer. |
|
|
2 | O ye sons of men,
|
how long will ye turn my glory into shame? |
How long will ye love vanity, |
and seek after leasing?
Selah.
|
|
|
3 | But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself:
|
the LORD will hear when I call unto him. |
|
|
4 | Stand in awe, and sin not: Eph. 4.26
|
commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still.
Selah.
|
|
|
5 | Offer the sacrifices of righteousness,
|
and put your trust in the LORD. |
|
|
6 | There be many that say, Who will show us any good?
|
LORD, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us. |
|
|
7 | Thou hast put gladness in my heart,
|
more than in the time that their corn and their wine increased. |
|
|
8 | I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep:
|
for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety. |
