< 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!
Poslušaj me, kadar kličem, oh Bog moje pravičnosti. Osvobodil si me, ko sem bil v stiski, usmili se me in usliši mojo molitev.
2 How long, O men! will ye dishonor my dignity? How long will ye love vanity, and seek disappointment? (Pause)
Oh vi človeški sinovi, doklej boste mojo slavo spreminjali v sramoto? Kako dolgo boste ljubili prazne reči in iskali laž? (Sela)
3 Know ye that the LORD hath exalted one that is devoted to him; The LORD will hear, when I call upon him.
Toda vedite, da je Gospod zase oddvojil tistega, ki je bogaboječ. Gospod bo slišal, kadar kličem k njemu.
4 Stand in awe, and sin no more; Commune with your hearts upon your beds, and desist! (Pause)
Stoj v strahospoštovanju in ne greši. Na svoji postelji se posvetuj s svojim lastnim srcem in miruj. (Sela)
5 Offer sacrifices of righteousness, And put your trust in the LORD!
Daruj klavne daritve pravičnosti in svoje trdno upanje položi v 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 so, ki pravijo: »Kdo nam bo pokazal karkoli dobrega?« Gospod, dvigni nad nami svetlobo svojega obličja.
7 Thou puttest gladness into my heart, Greater than theirs, when their corn and wine are abundant.
V moje srce si položil veselje, več kot v času, ko je naraslo njihovo žito in njihovo vino.
8 I will lay me down in peace, and sleep: For thou alone, O LORD! makest me dwell in safety.
V miru se bom ulegel in spal. Kajti samo ti, Gospod, mi daješ prebivati na varnem.
