1 You are my God and protector.Please answer my prayer.I was in terrible distress,but you set me free.Now have pity and listenas I pray.
2 How long will you peoplerefuse to respect me?You love foolish things,and you run afterwhat is worthless.
3 The Lord has choseneveryone who is faithfulto be his very own,and he answers my prayers.
4 But each of youhad better trembleand turn from your sins.Silently search your heartas you lie in bed.
5 Offer the proper sacrificesand trust the Lord.
