O sons of men, how long will you turn My glory into shame? Will you love vanity and seek after a lie? Selah.

There are many who say, Who will show us any good? Jehovah, lift up the light of Your face on us.

I will lie down, both in peace and in sleep. For You alone, Jehovah, make me dwell in safety.

Listen to the voice of my cry, my King and my God; for to You I will pray.

My voice You shall hear in the morning, O Jehovah; in the morning I will direct my prayer to You, and I will look up.

You shall destroy those who speak lies; Jehovah will despise the bloody and deceitful man.

I have called on You, for You will hear me, O God; bow down Your ear to me; hear my speech.

from men by Your hand, O Jehovah, from men of the world whose portion is in this life, and whose belly You fill with Your treasure. They are satisfied with sons, and will leave their riches to their babes.

As for me, I will behold Your face in righteousness; when I awake, I shall be satisfied with Your image.

A Psalm and Song at the dedication of the House of David. I will praise You, O Jehovah; for You have lifted me up, and have not allowed my foes to rejoice over me.
