< תהילים 4 >
לַמְנַצֵּחַ בִּנְגִינוֹת מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִֽד׃ בְּקׇרְאִי עֲנֵנִי ׀ אֱלֹהֵי צִדְקִי בַּצָּר הִרְחַבְתָּ לִּי חׇנֵּנִי וּשְׁמַע תְּפִלָּתִֽי׃ | 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.
בְּנֵי אִישׁ עַד־מֶה כְבוֹדִי לִכְלִמָּה תֶּאֱהָבוּן רִיק תְּבַקְשׁוּ כָזָב סֶֽלָה׃ | 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·
וּדְעוּ כִּֽי־הִפְלָה יְהֹוָה חָסִיד לוֹ יְהֹוָה יִשְׁמַע בְּקׇרְאִי אֵלָֽיו׃ | 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.
רִגְזוּ וְֽאַל־תֶּחֱטָאוּ אִמְרוּ בִלְבַבְכֶם עַֽל־מִשְׁכַּבְכֶם וְדֹמּוּ סֶֽלָה׃ | 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·
זִבְחוּ זִבְחֵי־צֶדֶק וּבִטְחוּ אֶל־יְהֹוָֽה׃ | 5 |
Offer the sacrifices of righteousness. Put your trust in Adonai.
רַבִּים אֹמְרִים מִֽי־יַרְאֵנוּ טוֹב נְֽסָה־עָלֵינוּ אוֹר פָּנֶיךָ יְהֹוָֽה׃ | 6 |
Many say, “Who will show us any good?” Adonai, let the light of your face shine on us.
נָתַתָּה שִׂמְחָה בְלִבִּי מֵעֵת דְּגָנָם וְתִירוֹשָׁם רָֽבּוּ׃ | 7 |
You have put gladness in my heart, more than when their grain and their new wine are increased.
בְּשָׁלוֹם יַחְדָּו אֶשְׁכְּבָה וְאִישָׁן כִּֽי־אַתָּה יְהֹוָה לְבָדָד לָבֶטַח תּֽוֹשִׁיבֵֽנִי׃ | 8 |
In peace I will both lay myself down and sleep, for you, Adonai alone, make me live in safety.
