< Psalmi 4 >

1 Poslušaj me, kadar kličem, oh Bog moje pravičnosti. Osvobodil si me, ko sem bil v stiski, usmili se me in usliši mojo molitev.
To the chief Musician. On stringed instruments. A Psalm of David. When I call, answer me, O God of my righteousness: in pressure thou hast enlarged me; be gracious unto me, and hear my prayer.
2 Oh vi človeški sinovi, doklej boste mojo slavo spreminjali v sramoto? Kako dolgo boste ljubili prazne reči in iskali laž? (Sela)
Ye sons of men, till when is my glory [to be put] to shame? [How long] will ye love vanity, will ye seek after a lie? (Selah)
3 Toda vedite, da je Gospod zase oddvojil tistega, ki je bogaboječ. Gospod bo slišal, kadar kličem k njemu.
But know that Jehovah hath set apart the pious [man] for himself: Jehovah will hear when I call unto him.
4 Stoj v strahospoštovanju in ne greši. Na svoji postelji se posvetuj s svojim lastnim srcem in miruj. (Sela)
Be moved with anger, and sin not; meditate in your own hearts upon your bed, and be still. (Selah)
5 Daruj klavne daritve pravičnosti in svoje trdno upanje položi v Gospoda.
Offer sacrifices of righteousness, and confide in Jehovah.
6 Mnogi so, ki pravijo: »Kdo nam bo pokazal karkoli dobrega?« Gospod, dvigni nad nami svetlobo svojega obličja.
Many say, Who shall cause us to see good? Lift up upon us the light of thy countenance, O Jehovah.
7 V moje srce si položil veselje, več kot v času, ko je naraslo njihovo žito in njihovo vino.
Thou hast put joy in my heart, more than in the time that their corn and their new wine was in abundance.
8 V miru se bom ulegel in spal. Kajti samo ti, Gospod, mi daješ prebivati na varnem.
In peace will I both lay me down and sleep; for thou, Jehovah, alone makest me to dwell in safety.
