| 1 | Answer me when I call, God of my righteousness. Give me relief from my distress. Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer. |
| 2 | You sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonor? Will you love vanity, and seek after falsehood? Selah. |
| 3 | But know that Yahweh has set apart for himself him who is godly: Yahweh will hear when I call to him. |
| 4 | Stand in awe, and don't sin. Search your own heart on your bed, and be still. Selah. |
| 5 | Offer the sacrifices of righteousness. Put your trust in Yahweh. |
| 6 | Many say, 'Who will show us any good?' Yahweh, let the light of your face shine on us. |
| 7 | You have put gladness in my heart, More than when their grain and their new wine are increased. |
| 8 | In peace I will both lay myself down and sleep, For you, Yahweh alone, make me live in safety. Psalm 5 For the Chief Musician, with the flutes. A Psalm by David. |
