How long, you people,
    will my reputation be insulted?
How long will you continue
    to love what is worthless
    and go after lies? Selah
Know this: the Lord takes
    personal care of the faithful.
The Lord will hear me
    when I cry out to him.
So be afraid, and don’t sin!
    Think hard about it in your bed
    and weep over it! Selah

Know that the Lord has set apart his faithful servant(D) for himself;
    the Lord hears(E) when I call to him.

Tremble and[c] do not sin;(F)
    when you are on your beds,(G)
    search your hearts and be silent.
