Evening Prayer of Trust in God. For the Chief Musician; on stringed instrumentsA Psalm of David. 1 Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness; Thou hast set me at large when I was in distress: Have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer. 2 O ye sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonor?How long will ye love vanity, and seek after falsehood? {Selah 3 But know that Jehovah hath set apart for himself him that is godly:Jehovah will hear when I call unto him. 4 Stand in awe, and sin not:Commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. {Selah 5 Offer the sacrifices of righteousness,And put your trust in Jehovah. 6 Many there are that say, Who will show us any good?Jehovah, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us. 7 Thou hast put gladness in my heart,More than they have when their grain and their new wine are increased. 8 In peace will I both lay me down and sleep;For thou, Jehovah, alone makest me dwell in safety.
