English Standard Version (ESV)

Back to Bible
1 ⓐⓑ Answer me when I call, O God of myⓒ righteousness! You haveⓓ given me relief when I was in distress. Be gracious to me and hear my prayer!
2 O men,[1] how long shall my honor be turned into shame? How long will you love vain words and seek afterⓔ lies? Selah
3 But know that the LORD hasⓕ set apartⓖ the godly for himself; the LORD hears when I call to him.
4 ⓗ Be angry,[2] and do not sin; ⓘponder in your own heartsⓙ on your beds, and be silent. Selah
5 Offerⓚ right sacrifices, and put yourⓛ trust in the LORD.
6 There are many who say, “Who will show us some good? ⓜLift upⓝ the light of your face upon us, O LORD!”
7 You have putⓞ more joy in my heart than they have when their grain and wine abound.
8 In peace I will bothⓟ lie down and sleep; for you alone, O LORD, make meⓠ dwell in safety.
