Answer Me When I Call! 1For the one directing. With stringed instruments. A Psalm of David. 1 In my calling out, may You answer me, O God of my righteousness! In my distress, You widened it for me; show me favor and hear my prayer. 2O sons of men, until when will my glory be shame? Will you⁺ love vanity, and seek after falsehood?† 3and know that YHWH has marked out the faithful one for Himself; YHWH hears in my calling to Him. speak in your⁺ heart on your⁺ bed, and be silent. 5Sacrifice the sacrifices of righteousness, 6Many are saying, “Who will show us good?” Lift upon us the light of Your face, O YHWH. 7You have put joy in my heart, more than the time when their grain and their new wine have increased. 8In peace I will both lie down and will sleep, for You alone, O YHWH, cause me to dwell in safety.
