Answer Me When I Call
To the (A)choirmaster: with (B)stringed instruments. A Psalm of David.
4 Answer me when I call, O God of my (C)righteousness!
You have (D)given me relief when I was in distress.
Be gracious to me and hear my prayer!
2 O men,[a] how long shall my honor be turned into shame?
How long will you love vain words and seek after (E)lies? Selah
3 But know that the Lord has (F)set apart (G)the godly for himself;
the Lord hears when I call to him.
4 (H)Be angry,[b] and do not sin;
(I)ponder in your own hearts (J)on your beds, and be silent. Selah
5 Offer (K)right sacrifices,
and put your (L)trust in the Lord.
6 There are many who say, “Who will show us some good?

than they have when their grain and wine abound.

Who Can Stand Before You?
To the choirmaster: with (A)stringed instruments. A Psalm of (B)Asaph. A Song.
76 In Judah God is (C)known;

3 There he (G)broke the flashing arrows,
the shield, the sword, and the weapons of war. Selah
4 Glorious are you, more majestic
(H)than the mountains full of (I)prey.
5 (J)The stouthearted were stripped of their spoil;
(K)they sank into sleep;
all the men of war
were unable to use their hands.
6 At your rebuke, O God of Jacob,
both (L)rider and horse lay stunned.
7 (M)But you, you are to be feared!
Who can (N)stand before you
when once your anger is roused?
8 From the heavens you uttered judgment;
(O)the earth feared and was still,
9 when God (P)arose to establish judgment,
to save all the humble of the earth. Selah
10 Surely (Q)the wrath of man shall praise you;
the remnant[a] of wrath you will put on like a belt.
11 (R)Make your vows to the Lord your God and perform them;
let all around him (S)bring gifts
to him who (T)is to be feared,
12 who (U)cuts off the spirit of princes,
who (V)is to be feared by the kings of the earth.

To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments; according to (A)The Sheminith.[a] A Psalm of David.

3 My (F)soul also is greatly troubled.
But you, O Lord—(G)how long?
4 Turn, O Lord, deliver my life;
save me for the sake of your steadfast love.
5 For in (H)death there is no remembrance of you;
in Sheol who will give you praise?
6 I am (I)weary with my (J)moaning;
every night I flood my bed with tears;
I drench my couch with my weeping.
7 My (K)eye wastes away because of grief;
it grows weak because of all my foes.
8 (L)Depart from me, all you (M)workers of evil,
for the Lord (N)has heard the sound of my weeping.
9 The Lord has heard my (O)plea;
the Lord accepts my prayer.

let (J)all the ends of the earth fear him!
Psalm 54-55
English Standard Version
The Lord Upholds My Life
To the choirmaster: with (A)stringed instruments. A Maskil[a] of David, (B)when the Ziphites went and told Saul, “Is not David hiding among us?”
54 O God, save me by your (C)name,
and vindicate me by your might.
2 O God, (D)hear my prayer;
give ear to the words of my mouth.
3 (E)For (F)strangers[b] have risen against me;
ruthless men (G)seek my life;
they do not set God before themselves. Selah
4 Behold, (H)God is my helper;
the Lord is the upholder of my life.
5 He will return the evil to my enemies;
in your (I)faithfulness (J)put an end to them.
6 With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to you;
I will give thanks to your name, O Lord, (K)for it is good.
7 For he has delivered me from every trouble,
and my eye has (L)looked in triumph on my enemies.
Cast Your Burden on the Lord
To the choirmaster: with (M)stringed instruments. A Maskil[c] of David.
55 (N)Give ear to my prayer, O God,
and hide not yourself from my plea for mercy!
2 Attend to me, and answer me;
I am restless (O)in my complaint and I (P)moan,
3 because of the noise of the enemy,
because of the oppression of the wicked.
For they (Q)drop trouble upon me,
and in anger they bear a grudge against me.
4 My heart is in anguish within me;
(R)the terrors of death have fallen upon me.
5 Fear and trembling come upon me,
and (S)horror (T)overwhelms me.
6 And I say, “Oh, that I had wings like a dove!
I would fly away and be at rest;
7 (U)yes, I would wander far away;
I would lodge in the wilderness; Selah
8 I would hurry to find a shelter
from (V)the raging wind and tempest.”
9 Destroy, O Lord, (W)divide their tongues;
for I see (X)violence and strife in the city.
10 Day and night they go around it
on its walls,
and (Y)iniquity and trouble are within it;
11 ruin is in its midst;
(Z)oppression and fraud
do not depart from its marketplace.
12 For it is not an enemy who taunts me—
then I could bear it;
it is not an adversary who (AA)deals insolently with me—
then I could hide from him.
13 (AB)But it is you, a man, my equal,
my companion, my familiar friend.
14 We used to take sweet counsel together;
within God's house we walked in (AC)the throng.
15 Let death steal over them;
let them go down to Sheol (AD)alive;
for evil is in their dwelling place and in their heart.
16 But I call to God,
and the Lord will save me.
17 (AE)Evening and (AF)morning and at (AG)noon
I (AH)utter my complaint and moan,
and he hears my voice.
18 He redeems my soul in safety
from the battle that I wage,
for (AI)many are arrayed against me.
19 God will give ear and humble them,
he who is (AJ)enthroned from of old, Selah
because they do not (AK)change
and do not fear God.
20 My companion[d] (AL)stretched out his hand against his friends;
he violated his covenant.
21 His (AM)speech was (AN)smooth as butter,
yet war was in his heart;
his words were softer than oil,
yet they were (AO)drawn swords.
22 (AP)Cast your burden on the Lord,
and he will sustain you;
(AQ)he will never permit
the righteous to be moved.
23 But you, O God, (AR)will cast them down
into (AS)the pit of destruction;
men of (AT)blood and treachery
shall not (AU)live out half their days.
But I will (AV)trust in you.
