< Psalms 4 >
1 For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm by David. Answer me when I call, God of my righteousness. Give me relief from my distress. Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer.
[Psalm lal David] O God, su loangeyu, Topukyu ke nga pre. Ke nga muta in ongoiya, kom kasreyu. Pakomutuk, ac lohng pre luk.
2 You sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonour? Will you love vanity and seek after falsehood? (Selah)
Putaka kowos ac akkolukye inek? Putaka kowos ac lungse ma lusrongten Ac suk ma kikiap?
3 But know that the LORD has set apart for himself him who is godly; The LORD will hear when I call to him.
Esam lah LEUM GOD El sulela mwet suwoswos tuh elos in ma lal, Ac El lohngyu ke nga pang nu sel.
4 Stand in awe, and don’t sin. Search your own heart on your bed, and be still. (Selah)
Kowos in rarrar ke sangeng, ac tia sifil oru ma koluk; Nunku akloalya ke ma se inge Ke kowos oan in misla fin mwe oan kiowos.
5 Offer the sacrifices of righteousness. Put your trust in the LORD.
Kisakin mwe kisa fal nu sin LEUM GOD, Ac filiya lulalfongi lowos in El.
6 Many say, “Who will show us any good?” LORD, let the light of your face shine on us.
Oasr mwet puspis su pre ac fahk, “O LEUM GOD, saok kom in sifilpa akinsewowoye kut, Ac ngetnget kulang lom in srekuti!”
7 You have put gladness in my heart, more than when their grain and their new wine are increased.
Tusruktu, engan su kom ase nu sik Yohk liki na engankinyen mut lalos Ke wheat ac wain.
8 In peace I will both lay myself down and sleep, for you alone, LORD, make me live in safety.
Ke nga ona, nga motulla in misla; Mweyen kom mukena, LEUM GOD, ku in karinginyu wo. s
