< Psalms 4 >

1 TO THE OVERSEER. WITH STRINGED INSTRUMENTS. A PSALM OF DAVID. In my calling answer me, O God of my righteousness. In adversity You gave enlargement to me; Favor me, and hear my prayer.
Rhotoeng neh aka mawt ham David kah Tingtoenglung Ka duengnah Pathen te ka khue vaengah ka taengah nan doo tih, rhal khui lamkah kai te nan voelphoeng sak. Kai n'rhen lamtah ka thangthuinah he han ya lah.
2 Sons of men! Until when [is] my glory for shame? You love a vain thing, you seek a lie. (Selah)
Hlang capa rhoek aw, kai thangpomnah te me hil nim mingthae la a om ve? A poeyoek te nim na lungnah uh vetih, laithae nim na tlap uh eh? (Selah)
3 And know that YHWH Has separated a saintly one to Himself. YHWH hears in my calling to Him.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh hlangcim te amah ham a hoep tila ming lah. Amah te ka khue vaengah, BOEIPA loh a yaak ni.
4 “Tremble, and do not sin”; Say [thus] in your heart on your bed, And be silent. (Selah)
Na tlai nen khaw tholh uh boeh. Na thinko neh na thingkong dongah thui lamtah kuemsuem lah. (Selah)
5 Sacrifice sacrifices of righteousness, And trust in YHWH.
Duengnah hmueih te nawn lamtah BOEIPA dongah pangtung lah.
6 Many are saying, “Who shows us good?” Lift on us the light of Your face, O YHWH,
Ulae kaimih a then aka tueng thai eh aka ti khaw yet. Aw BOEIPA na maelhmai kah a aa neh, kaimih soah han tue lah.
7 You have given joy in my heart, From the time their grain and their wine Have been multiplied.
Cangpai neh misur thai a thawt tue vaengkah lakah ka lungbuei ah kohoenah nan paek.
8 Together I lie down and sleep in peace, For You, O YHWH, alone, Cause me to dwell in confidence!
BOEIPA nang bueng daengloh, kai he ngaikhuek la kho nan sak sak dongah, ngaimong la ka yalh vetih ka ih puei ni.
