| [To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments. A Psalm of David.] |
לַמְנַצֵּחַ בִּנְגִינֹות מִזְמֹור לְדָוִד׃ | Evening Prayer. Psalm 4 |
| Answer me when I call, O God of my right!
Thou hast given me room when I was in distress.
Be gracious to me, and hear my prayer.
|
בְּקָרְאִי עֲנֵנִי אֱלֹהֵי צִדְקִי בַּצָּר הִרְחַבְתָּ לִּי חָנֵּנִי וּשְׁמַע תְּפִלָּתִי׃ | |
| O men, how long shall my honor suffer shame?
How long will you love vain words, and seek after lies? [Selah]
|
בְּנֵי אִישׁ עַד־מֶה כְבֹודִי לִכְלִמָּה תֶּאֱהָבוּן רִיק תְּבַקְשׁוּ כָזָב סֶלָה׃ | |
| But know that the LORD has set apart the godly for himself;
the LORD hears when I call to him.
|
וּדְעוּ כִּי־הִפְלָה יְהוָה חָסִיד לֹו יְהוָה יִשְׁמַע בְּקָרְאִי אֵלָיו׃ | |
| Be angry, but sin not;
commune with your own hearts on your beds, and be silent. [Selah]
|
רִגְזוּ וְאַל־תֶּחֱטָאוּ אִמְרוּ בִלְבַבְכֶם עַל־מִשְׁכַּבְכֶם וְדֹמּוּ סֶלָה׃ | |
| Offer right sacrifices,
and put your trust in the LORD.
|
זִבְחוּ זִבְחֵי־צֶדֶק וּבִטְחוּ אֶל־יְהוָה׃ | |
| There are many who say,
"O that we might see some good!
Lift up O LORD,
the light of thy countenance upon us!"
|
רַבִּים אֹמְרִים מִי־יַרְאֵנוּ טֹוב נְסָה־עָלֵינוּ אֹור פָּנֶיךָ יְהוָה׃ | |
| Thou hast put more joy in my heart
than they have when their grain and wine abound.
|
נָתַתָּה שִׂמְחָה בְלִבִּי מֵעֵת דְּגָנָם וְתִירֹושָׁם רָבּוּ׃ | |
| In peace I will both lie down and sleep;
for thou alone, O Lord, makest me dwell in safety. |
בְּשָׁלֹום יַחְדָּו אֶשְׁכְּבָה וְאִישָׁן כִּי־אַתָּה יְהוָה לְבָדָד לָבֶטַח תֹּושִׁיבֵנִי׃ | |
