< Psalmi 4 >
1 Dāvida dziesma. Dziedātāju vadonim uz koklēm. Kad es saucu, tad paklausi mani, Tu, manas taisnības Dievs; bēdās Tu mani esi iepriecinājis; esi man žēlīgs un paklausi manu lūgšanu.
To the chief music-maker on corded instruments. A Psalm. Of David. Give answer to my cry, O God of my righteousness; make me free from my troubles; have mercy on me, and give ear to my prayer.
2 Cilvēku bērni, cik ilgi mans gods paliks kaunā? Cik ilgi jūs mīlēsiet nīcīgas lietas un meklēsiet melus? (Sela)
O you sons of men, how long will you go on turning my glory into shame? how long will you give your love to foolish things, going after what is false? (Selah)
3 Atzīstiet jel, ka Tas Kungs brīnišķi vadījis to, kas Viņu bīstas; Tas Kungs mani paklausa, kad es Viņu piesaucu.
See how the Lord has made great his mercy for me; the Lord will give ear to my cry.
4 Dusmojiet, bet negrēkojiet, runājiet savā sirdī uz savām gultām un esiet klusu (Sela)
Let there be fear in your hearts, and do no sin; have bitter feelings on your bed, but make no sound. (Selah)
5 Upurējiet taisnības upurus un paļaujaties uz To Kungu.
Give the offerings of righteousness, and put your faith in the Lord.
6 Daudzi saka: kas mums rādīs labumu? Pacel, ak Kungs, pār mums Sava vaiga gaišumu.
There are numbers who say, Who will do us any good? the light of his face has gone from us.
7 Tu manai sirdij devis vairāk prieka nekā viņiem, kad tiem labības un vīna papilnam.
Lord, you have put joy in my heart, more than they have when their grain and their wine are increased.
8 Es apgulšos ar mieru un aizmigšu, jo Tu vien, Kungs dari, ka es droši dzīvoju.
I will take my rest on my bed in peace, because you only, Lord, keep me safe.
