Psalms 4
1 In parts according to verses. A Psalm of David. When I called upon him, the God of my justice heeded me. In tribulation, you have enlarged me. Have mercy on me, and heed my prayer.
| لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ عَلَى «ذَوَاتِ ٱلْأَوْتَارِ». مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ عِنْدَ دُعَائِيَ ٱسْتَجِبْ لِي يَا إِلَهَ بِرِّي. فِي ٱلضِّيقِ رَحَّبْتَ لِي. تَرَاءَفْ عَلَيَّ وَٱسْمَعْ صَلَاتِي. | ١ |
2 Sons of men, how long will you be dull in heart, so that whatever you love is in vain, and whatever you seek is false? (Pause)
| يَا بَنِي ٱلْبَشَرِ، حَتَّى مَتَى يَكُونُ مَجْدِي عَارًا؟ حَتَّى مَتَى تُحِبُّونَ ٱلْبَاطِلَ وَتَبْتَغُونَ ٱلْكَذِبَ؟ سِلَاهْ. | ٢ |
3 And know this: the Lord has made wondrous his holy one. The Lord will heed me when I cry out to him.
| فَٱعْلَمُوا أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدْ مَيَّزَ تَقِيَّهُ. ٱلرَّبُّ يَسْمَعُ عِنْدَ مَا أَدْعُوهُ. | ٣ |
4 Be angry, and do not be willing to sin. The things that you say in your hearts: be sorry for them on your beds. (Pause)
| اِرْتَعِدُوا وَلَا تُخْطِئُوا. تَكَلَّمُوا فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ عَلَى مَضَاجِعِكُمْ وَٱسْكُتُوا. سِلَاهْ. | ٤ |
5 Offer the sacrifice of justice, and hope in the Lord. Many say, “Who reveals to us what is good?”
| اِذْبَحُوا ذَبَائِحَ ٱلْبِرِّ، وَتَوَكَّلُوا عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٥ |
6 The light of your countenance, Lord, has been sealed upon us. You have given joy to my heart.
| كَثِيرُونَ يَقُولُونَ: «مَنْ يُرِينَا خَيْرًا؟». ٱرْفَعْ عَلَيْنَا نُورَ وَجْهِكَ يَارَبُّ. | ٦ |
7 By the fruit of their grain, wine, and oil, they have been multiplied.
| جَعَلْتَ سُرُورًا فِي قَلْبِي أَعْظَمَ مِنْ سُرُورِهِمْ إِذْ كَثُرَتْ حِنْطَتُهُمْ وَخَمْرُهُمْ. | ٧ |
8 In peace itself, I will sleep and I will rest. For you, O Lord, have established me singularly in hope.
| بِسَلَامَةٍ أَضْطَجِعُ بَلْ أَيْضًا أَنَامُ، لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ يَارَبُّ مُنْفَرِدًا فِي طُمَأْنِينَةٍ تُسَكِّنُنِي. | ٨ |
