2 How long will you people insult me? How long will you love what is worthless and go after what is false?
2 How long will you people turn my glory into shame? How long will you love delusions and seek false gods
3 Remember that the Lord has chosen the righteous for his own, and he hears me when I call to him.
3 Know that the LORD has set apart his faithful servant for himself; the LORD hears when I call to him.

4 Tremble and do not sin; when you are on your beds, search your hearts and be silent.
5 Offer the right sacrifices to the Lord, and put your trust in him.
5 Offer the sacrifices of the righteous and trust in the LORD.
6 There are many who pray: "Give us more blessings, O Lord. Look on us with kindness!"
6 Many, LORD, are asking, “Who will bring us prosperity?” Let the light of your face shine on us.
