< Psalms 4 >
1 Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness: thou hast enlarged me when I was in distress; have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.
Abụ Ọma nke dịrị onyeisi abụ. Abụ Ọma Devid nke a na-eji ụbọ akwara akpọ. Zaa m mgbe m na-akpọku gị Chineke m, gị onye ezi omume; Napụta m site nʼihe mgbu m, meere m ebere, nụrụkwa ekpere m.
2 O ye sons of men, how long will ye turn my glory into shame? how long will ye love vanity, and seek after a lie? (Selah)
Unu ụmụ mmadụ, ruo ole mgbe ka unu ga-atụgharịa ebube m, mee ka ọ bụrụ ihe ihere? Ruo ole mgbe ka unu ga-ahụ ihe efu nʼanya na-achọ chi ndị ahụ na-abụghị chi nʼezie? (Sela)
3 But know that Yhwh hath set apart him that is godly for himself: Yhwh will hear when I call unto him.
Matanụ nke ọma na Onyenwe anyị ahọpụtala ndị ezi omume nye onwe ya; ọ ga-egekwa ntị nʼolu m mgbe ọbụla m kpọkuru ya.
4 Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. (Selah)
Maanụ jijiji, unu emehiekwala; mgbe unu nọ nʼelu ihe ndina unu; nọọnụ jụụ na-enyocha obi unu. (Sela)
5 Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in Yhwh.
Tụkwasịnụ Onyenwe anyị obi unu, chụkwaranụ ya aja ezi omume.
6 There be many that say, Who will shew us any good? Yhwh, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.
Ọtụtụ ndị mmadụ na-ajụ, “Onye pụrụ imere anyị ihe ọma?” Ma Onyenwe anyị, biko mee ka ìhè nke ihu gị mụkwasị anyị.
7 Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than in the time that their grain and their wine increased.
Were ọṅụ mejupụta obi m karịa mgbe mkpụrụ ubi, ya na mmanya ọhụrụ ha bara ụba nke ukwuu.
8 I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, Yhwh, only makest me dwell in safety.
Aga m edina ala ma rahụ ụra nʼudo, nʼihi na ọ bụ naanị gị Onyenwe anyị, na-eme ka m nọrọ na-enweghị ihe egwu ọbụla.
