Psalmorum 4
1 In finem in carminibus, Psalmus David. Cum invocarem exaudivit me Deus iustitiæ meæ: in tribulatione dilatasti mihi. Miserere mei, et exaudi orationem meam. Filii hominum usquequo gravi corde? ut quid diligitis vanitatem, et quæritis mendacium?
For the Leader; with string-music. A Psalm of David. Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness, Thou who didst set me free when I was in distress; be gracious unto me, and hear my prayer.
2 Et scitote quoniam mirificavit Dominus sanctum suum: Dominus exaudiet me cum clamavero ad eum.
O ye sons of men, how long shall my glory be put to shame, in that ye love vanity, and seek after falsehood? (Selah)
3 Irascimini, et nolite peccare: quæ dicitis in cordibus vestris, in cubilibus vestris compungimini.
But know that the LORD hath set apart the godly man as His own; the LORD will hear when I call unto Him.
4 Sacrificate sacrificium iustitiæ, et sperate in Domino. multi dicunt: Quis ostendit nobis bona?
Tremble, and sin not; commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. (Selah)
5 Signatum est super nos lumen vultus tui Domine: dedisti lætitiam in corde meo.
Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD.
6 A fructu frumenti, vini, et olei sui multiplicati sunt.
Many there are that say: 'Oh that we could see some good!' LORD, lift Thou up the light of Thy countenance upon us.
7 In pace in idipsum dormiam, et requiescam;
Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than when their corn and their wine increase.
8 Quoniam tu Domine singulariter in spe constituisti me.
In peace will I both lay me down and sleep; for Thou, LORD, makest me dwell alone in safety.
