Evening prayer of trust in God.

For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm of David.

¹Answer me when I call, God of my righteousness. Give me relief from my distress. Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer.

²You sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonor? Will you love vanity, and seek after falsehood? Selah.

³But know that Yahweh has set apart for himself him who is godly: Yahweh will hear when I call to him.

⁴Stand in awe, and don`t sin. Search your own heart on your bed, and be still. Selah.

⁵Offer the sacrifices of righteousness. Put your trust in Yahweh.

⁶Many say, "Who will show us any good?" Yahweh, let the light of your face shine on us.

⁷You have put gladness in my heart, More than when their grain and their new wine are increased.

⁸In peace I will both lay myself down and sleep, For you, Yahweh alone, make me live in safety.
