< Psalms 4 >
1 “For the leader of the music; to be accompanied with stringed instruments. A psalm of David.” Hear me, when I call, O God of my righteousness! Thou hast helped me, when I was in trouble, —Have pity upon me, and hear my prayer!
Kad te zovem, èuj me, Bože, pravdo moja! u tjeskobi daj mi prostor; smiluj se na me i usliši molitvu moju.
2 How long, O men! will ye dishonor my dignity? How long will ye love vanity, and seek disappointment? (Pause)
Sinovi èovjeèiji! dokle æe slava moja biti u sramoti? dokle æete ljubiti ništavilo i tražiti laži?
3 Know ye that the LORD hath exalted one that is devoted to him; The LORD will hear, when I call upon him.
Znajte da Gospod divno èuva svetoga svojega; Gospod èuje kad ga zovem.
4 Stand in awe, and sin no more; Commune with your hearts upon your beds, and desist! (Pause)
Gnjeveæi se ne griješite; razmislite u srcima svojim na posteljama svojim, i utolite.
5 Offer sacrifices of righteousness, And put your trust in the LORD!
Prinesite žrtvu za pravdu, i uzdajte se u Gospoda.
6 There are many who say, Who will show us any good? LORD, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us!
Mnogi govore: ko æe nam pokazati što je dobro? Obrati k nama, Gospode, svijetlo lice svoje.
7 Thou puttest gladness into my heart, Greater than theirs, when their corn and wine are abundant.
A meni si dao u srce radost veæu nego što je oni imaju, kad im rodi pšenica i vino.
8 I will lay me down in peace, and sleep: For thou alone, O LORD! makest me dwell in safety.
Ja mirno liježem i spavam; jer ti, Gospode, sam daješ mi te sam bez straha.
