2 O ye sons of men, how long will ye turn my glory into shame? how long will ye love vanity, and seek after leasing*? Selah. (*leasing - a lie, untruth, falsehood, deceptive thing)
3 But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD 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 the LORD.
6 There be many that say, Who will shew us any good? LORD, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.
7 Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than in the time that their corn and their wine increased .
8 I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety.
