1 To the victory, in organs, the psalm of David. When I inwardly called, God of my rightwiseness heard me; in tribulation thou hast alarged to me. Have thou mercy on me; and hear thou my prayer.

2 Sons of men, how long be ye of heavy heart? why love ye vanity, and seek leasing?

3 And know ye, that the Lord hath made marvellous his holy man; the Lord shall hear me, when I shall cry to him.

4 Be ye wroth, and do not ye sin; and for those evils to which ye say in your hearts and in your beds, be ye compunct.

5 Sacrifice ye the sacrifice or Offer ye an offering of rightfulness [or right-wiseness], and hope ye in the Lord;

6 many say, Who showed good things to us? Lord, the light of thy cheer is marked upon us;

7 thou hast given gladness in mine heart. They be multiplied of the fruit of wheat, and of wine; and of their oil.

8 In peace in the same thing; I shall sleep, and take rest. For thou, Lord; hast set me singularly or only in hope.
