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.
詩歌，交與樂官，和以絃樂。 我公義的天主！我一呼求你，你就應允了我，我在困苦中，你曾舒暢了我。求你憐憫我，求你俯聽我禱。
2 You sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonor? Will you love vanity and seek after falsehood? (Selah)
顯貴的人們，你們的心要硬到幾時？你們愛慕虛幻，追求虛偽究竟為何？
3 But know that the LORD has set apart for himself him who is godly; The LORD will hear when I call to him.
你們當知：上主特愛對祂虔敬的人，當我呼求上主的時候，祂一定俯允。
4 Stand in awe, and don’t sin. Search your own heart on your bed, and be still. (Selah)
你們應戰慄，不可一再作惡，在床上檢討，且要捫心思過。
5 Offer the sacrifices of righteousness. Put your trust in the LORD.
奉上正義的祭獻，對上主全心依盼。
6 Many say, “Who will show us any good?” LORD, let the light of your face shine on us.
有許多人說：誰能使我們幸福亨通？上主，望你向我們顯你光榮的儀容。
7 You have put gladness in my heart, more than when their grain and their new wine are increased.
你賜給我心中的歡耀，遠勝過麥和酒的豐饒。
8 In peace I will both lay myself down and sleep, for you alone, LORD, make me live in safety.
在平安中我一躺下即刻入睡，上主，唯有有你能使我安居順遂。
