Answer Me When I Call
To the 4:0 Ps. 61, title; Hab. 3:19choirmaster: with 4:0 Ps. 61, title; Hab. 3:19stringed instruments. A Psalm of David.

1Answer me when I call, O God of my 4:1 Isa. 54:17; Jer. 23:6righteousness!
You have 4:1 See Job 36:16given me relief when I was in distress.
Be gracious to me and hear my prayer!

2O men,4:2 Or O men of rank how long shall my honor be turned into shame?
How long will you love vain words and seek after 4:2 [Ps. 5:6]lies? Selah
3But know that the Lord has 4:3 [Ex. 11:7] set apart 4:3 [Ps. 50:5]the godly for himself;
the Lord hears when I call to him.

44:4 Cited Eph. 4:26Be angry,4:4 Or Be agitated and do not sin;
4:4 Ps. 77:6ponder in your own hearts 4:4 See Ps. 42:8on your beds, and be silent. Selah
5Offer 4:5 Ps. 51:19; Deut. 33:19right sacrifices,
and put your 4:5 Ps. 37:3; 62:8trust in the Lord.

6There are many who say, “Who will show us some good?
4:6 Num. 6:26Lift up 4:6 Ps. 89:15; [Ps. 31:16; 67:1; 80:3, 7, 19; 119:135]the light of your face upon us, O Lord!”
7You have put 4:7 [Isa. 9:3; 16:10; Jer. 48:38]more joy in my heart
than they have when their grain and wine abound.

8In peace I will both 4:8 See Ps. 3:5lie down and sleep;
for you alone, O Lord, make me 4:8 Ps. 16:9; Lev. 25:18, 19; 26:5; Deut. 33:28dwell in safety.
