< Psalms 4 >

1 For the End, a Song of David amongst [the ]Psalms. When I called upon [him], the God of my righteousness heard me: you have made room for me in tribulation; pity me, and listen to my prayer.
Al maestro de música. Para instrumentos de cuerda. Salmo de David. Cuando te invoque, óyeme ¡oh Dios de mi justicia! Tú, que en la tribulación me levantaste, ten misericordia de mí, y acoge mi súplica.
2 O you sons of men, how long [will you be] slow of heart? therefore do you love vanity, and seek falsehood? (Pause)
Hijos de hombres ¿hasta cuándo seréis insensatos? ¿Por qué amáis la vanidad y buscáis lo que es mentira?
3 But know you that the Lord has done wondrous things for his holy one: the Lord will hear me when I cry to him.
Sabed que Yahvé favorece maravillosamente al santo suyo; cuando le invoco, Yahvé me oye.
4 Be you angry, and sin not; feel compunction upon your beds for what you say in your hearts. (Pause)
Temblad, y no queráis pecar; dentro de vuestros corazones, en vuestros lechos, recapacitad y enmudeced.
5 Offer the sacrifice of righteousness, and trust in the Lord.
Ofreced sacrificios de justicia, y esperad en Yahvé.
6 Many say, Who will show us good things? the light of your countenance, O Lord, has been manifested towards us.
Muchos dicen: “¿Quién nos mostrará los bienes?” Alza Tú sobre nosotros la luz de tu rostro, oh Yahvé.
7 You have put gladness into my heart: they have been satisfied with the fruit of their corn and wine and oil.
Tú has puesto en mi corazón mayor alegría que cuando abunda trigo y vino.
8 I will both lie down in peace and sleep: for you, Lord, only have caused me to dwell securely.
Apenas me acuesto, me duermo en paz, porque Tú me das seguridad, oh Yahvé.
