Psalms 4
1 To the chief Musician on Neginoth, A Psalm of David. 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.
Pou direktè koral la; sou enstriman ak fil yo; yon sòm David Reponn mwen lè m rele Ou, O Bondye ladwati mwen; Ou te fè m pran souf nan gran twoub mwen an. Fè m gras e tande lapriyè mwen.
2 O ye sons of men, how long [will ye turn] my glory into shame? [how long] will ye love vanity, [and] seek after leasing? (Selah)
O fis a lòm yo, jiskilè laglwa Mwen va devni yon repwòch? Jiskilè ou va renmen sa ki san valè e tante twonpe moun? Tan
3 But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD will hear when I call unto him.
Men konnen ke SENYÈ a te mete nonm Bondye a apa pou Li menm. SENYÈ a tande lè m fè apèl Li.
4 Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. (Selah)
Tranble, men pa fè peche. Reflechi nan kè ou sou kabann ou, e rete kalm. Tan
5 Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD.
Ofri sakrifis ladwati yo. Mete konfyans nan SENYÈ a.
6 [There be] many that say, Who will shew us [any] good? LORD, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.
Anpil ap di: “Kilès ki kab montre nou yon bagay ki bon?” SENYÈ, leve wo limyè a vizaj Ou devan nou!
7 Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than in the time [that] their corn and their wine increased.
Ou te mete lajwa nan kè m plis pase lè gwo rekòlt sereyal mi ak diven nèf vin parèt.
8 I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety.
Anpè, mwen va kouche pou dòmi, paske Ou sèl, SENYÈ, fè m viv ansekirite.
