Psalms 4
1 For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm of David. Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness; thou hast set me at large [when I was] in distress: have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.
| לַמְנַצֵּחַ בִּנְגִינוֹת מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִֽד׃ בְּקָרְאִי עֲנֵנִי ׀ אֱלֹהֵי צִדְקִי בַּצָּר הִרְחַבְתָּ לִּי חָנֵּנִי וּשְׁמַע תְּפִלָּתִֽי׃ |
2 O ye sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonour? [how long] will ye love vanity, and seek after falsehood? (Selah)
| בְּנֵי אִישׁ עַד־מֶה כְבוֹדִי לִכְלִמָּה תֶּאֱהָבוּן רִיק תְּבַקְשׁוּ כָזָב סֶֽלָה׃ |
3 But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD will hear when I call unto him.
| וּדְעוּ כִּֽי־הִפְלָה יְהוָה חָסִיד לוֹ יְהוָה יִשְׁמַע בְּקָרְאִי אֵלָֽיו׃ |
4 Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. (Selah)
| רִגְזוּ וְֽאַל־תֶּחֱטָאוּ אִמְרוּ בִלְבַבְכֶם עַֽל־מִשְׁכַּבְכֶם וְדֹמּוּ סֶֽלָה׃ |
5 Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD.
| זִבְחוּ זִבְחֵי־צֶדֶק וּבִטְחוּ אֶל־יְהוָֽה׃ |
6 Many there be that say, Who will shew us [any] good? LORD, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.
| רַבִּים אֹמְרִים מִֽי־יַרְאֵנוּ טוֹב נְֽסָה־עָלֵינוּ אוֹר פָּנֶיךָ יְהוָֽה׃ |
7 Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than [they have] when their corn and their wine are increased.
| נָתַתָּה שִׂמְחָה בְלִבִּי מֵעֵת דְּגָנָם וְתִֽירוֹשָׁם רָֽבּוּ׃ |
8 In peace will I both lay me down and sleep: for thou, LORD, alone makest me dwell in safety.
| בְּשָׁלוֹם יַחְדָּו אֶשְׁכְּבָה וְאִישָׁן כִּֽי־אַתָּה יְהוָה לְבָדָד לָבֶטַח תּוֹשִׁיבֵֽנִי׃ |
