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
God, answer me when I pray to you. You are the one who vindicates me; Rescue me from things that distress me. Act mercifully toward me, and listen to me while I pray.
2 et scitote quoniam mirificavit Dominus sanctum suum Dominus exaudiet me cum clamavero ad eum
How long will you people cause me to be disgraced instead of honoring me [RHQ]? You [people] love to falsely accuse me.
3 irascimini et nolite peccare quae dicitis in cordibus vestris in cubilibus vestris conpungimini diapsalma
All those who are loyal to Yahweh, he has chosen them to belong to him. Yahweh listens to me when I pray to him.
4 sacrificate sacrificium iustitiae et sperate in Domino multi dicunt quis ostendet nobis bona
When you people get angry, do not [allow your anger to control you and cause you to] sin. While you lie on your bed, silently examine what you are thinking.
5 signatum est super nos lumen vultus tui Domine dedisti laetitiam in corde meo
Also, offer to Yahweh the proper sacrifices, and continue trusting in him.
6 a fructu frumenti et vini et olei sui multiplicati sunt
Some people ask, “Who will allow good things to happen to us?” [But I say], “Yahweh, continue to act kindly toward us.
7 in pace in id ipsum dormiam et requiescam
You have made me very happy; I am happier than people who have harvested a great amount of grain and grapes.
8 quoniam tu Domine singulariter in spe constituisti me
I can lie down [at night] and sleep soundly because [I know that] you, Yahweh, will keep me safe.”
