Psalms 4
1 Answer me when I call, God of my righteousness. Give me relief from my distress. Have mercy on me, and sh'ma ·hear obey· my prayer.
大衛的詩，交與伶長。用絲弦的樂器。 顯我為義的上帝啊， 我呼籲的時候，求你應允我！ 我在困苦中，你曾使我寬廣； 現在求你憐恤我，聽我的禱告！
2 You sons of men, how long shall my kavod ·weighty glory· be turned into dishonor? Will you 'ahav ·affectionately love· vanity, and seek after falsehood? (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·
你們這上流人哪，你們將我的尊榮變為羞辱要到幾時呢？ 你們喜愛虛妄，尋找虛假，要到幾時呢？ (細拉)
3 But know that Adonai has set apart for himself him who is godly: Adonai will sh'ma ·hear obey· when I call to him.
你們要知道，耶和華已經分別虔誠人歸他自己； 我求告耶和華，他必聽我。
4 You can be angry, but don’t sin ·err (from the standard goal)·. Search your own heart on your bed, and be still. (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·
你們應當畏懼，不可犯罪； 在床上的時候，要心裏思想，並要肅靜。 (細拉)
5 Offer the sacrifices of righteousness. Put your trust in Adonai.
當獻上公義的祭， 又當倚靠耶和華。
6 Many say, “Who will show us any good?” Adonai, let the light of your face shine on us.
有許多人說：誰能指示我們甚麼好處？ 耶和華啊，求你仰起臉來，光照我們。
7 You have put gladness in my heart, more than when their grain and their new wine are increased.
你使我心裏快樂， 勝過那豐收五穀新酒的人。
8 In peace I will both lay myself down and sleep, for you, Adonai alone, make me live in safety.
我必安然躺下睡覺， 因為獨有你－耶和華使我安然居住。
