4
For the End, a Song of David among the Psalms.
1 When I called upon him, the God of my righteousness heard me: thou hast made room for me in tribulation; pity me, and hearken to my prayer.
2 O ye sons of men, how long will ye be * Lit. heavy of heart. slow of heart? wherefore do ye love vanity, and seek falsehood? Pause.
3 But know ye that the Lord has done wondrous things for his holy one: the Lord will hear me when I cry to him.
4 ✡ Eph 4.26. Be ye angry, and sin not; feel compunction upon your beds for what ye say in your hearts. Pause.
5 Offer the sacrifice of righteousness, and trust in the Lord.
6 Many say, Who will shew us good things? the light of thy countenance, O Lord, has been manifested towards us.
7 Thou hast put gladness into my heart: they have been satisfied with the fruit of their corn and wine and oil.
8 I will † Or. at the same time. both lie down in peace and sleep: for thou, Lord, only hast caused me to dwell securely.
