Psalmorum 4
1 in finem in carminibus psalmus David cum invocarem exaudivit me Deus iustitiae meae in tribulatione dilatasti mihi miserere mei et exaudi orationem meam filii hominum usquequo gravi corde ut quid diligitis vanitatem et quaeritis mendacium diapsalma
For the leader, with stringed instruments. A psalm of David. Answer my cry, God, my defender. Often from straits you have brought me to spacious places. So now show me your favour and hear my prayer.
2 et scitote quoniam mirificavit Dominus sanctum suum Dominus exaudiet me cum clamavero ad eum
How long, you proud people, will my honour be stained by the slanders you love, and the lies that you follow? (Selah)
3 irascimini et nolite peccare quae dicitis in cordibus vestris in cubilibus vestris conpungimini diapsalma
See! The Lord has shown me his wonderful kindness: the Lord hears, when I call to him.
4 sacrificate sacrificium iustitiae et sperate in Domino multi dicunt quis ostendet nobis bona
Sin not in your anger: but speak in your heart on your bed, and be still. (Selah)
5 signatum est super nos lumen vultus tui Domine dedisti laetitiam in corde meo
Offer true sacrifice, trust in the Lord.
6 a fructu frumenti et vini et olei sui multiplicati sunt
Many are longing for fortune to smile. Lift upon us the light of your face.
7 in pace in id ipsum dormiam et requiescam
You have put in my heart, Lord, a deeper joy than was theirs who had corn and wine in abundance.
8 quoniam tu Domine singulariter in spe constituisti me
So in peace I will lie down and sleep; for you, Lord, keep me safe.
