Psalms 3

The Book of Psalms

4

  For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm of David.

1

Answer me when I call, O YAHUVEH 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 YAHUVEH hath set apart for himself him that is righteous: YAHUVEH 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 YAHUVEH.

6

Many there are that say, Who will show us any good? YAHUVEH, 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, YAHUVEH, alone makest me dwell in safety. Psalm 5 For the Chief Musician; with the Nehiloth.
