CJB

1 For the leader. With stringed instruments. A psalm of David: O God, my vindicator! Answer me when I call! When I was distressed, you set me free; now have mercy on me, and hear my prayer.
1 Answer me when I call to you, my righteous God. Give me relief from my distress; have mercy on me and hear my prayer.
2 Men of rank, how long will you shame my honor, love what is vain, chase after lies? (Selah)
2 How long will you people turn my glory into shame? How long will you love delusions and seek false gods
3 Understand that ADONAI sets apart the godly person for himself; ADONAI will hear 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 You can be angry, but do not sin! Think about this as you lie in bed, and calm down. (Selah)
4 Tremble and do not sin; when you are on your beds, search your hearts and be silent.
5 Offer sacrifices rightly, and put your trust in ADONAI.
5 Offer the sacrifices of the righteous and trust in the LORD.
6 Many ask, "Who can show us some good?" ADONAI, lift the light of your face over us!
6 Many, LORD, are asking, “Who will bring us prosperity?” Let the light of your face shine on us.
7 You have filled my heart with more joy than all their grain and new wine.
7 Fill my heart with joy when their grain and new wine abound.
8 I will lie down and sleep in peace; for, ADONAI, you alone make me live securely.
8 In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, LORD, make me dwell in safety.
