(A psalm by David for the music leader. Use stringed instruments.)

An Evening Prayer

You are my God and protector.
    Please answer my prayer.
I was in terrible distress,
    but you set me free.
Now have pity and listen
    as I pray.

How long will you people
    refuse to respect me?[a]
You love foolish things,
and you run after
    what is worthless.[b]
