< Psalms 4 >

1 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.
[Rhotoeng neh aka mawt ham David kah Tingtoenglung] Ka duengnah Pathen te ka khue vaengah ka taengah nan doo tih, rhal khui lamkah kai te nan voelphoeng sak. Kai n'rhen lamtah ka thangthuinah he han ya lah.
2 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)
Hlang capa rhoek aw, kai thangpomnah te me hil nim mingthae la a om ve? A poeyoek te nim na lungnah uh vetih, laithae nim na tlap uh eh? (Selah)
3 But know that Jehovah hath set apart the pious [man] for himself: Jehovah will hear when I call unto him.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh hlangcim te amah ham a hoep tila ming lah. Amah te ka khue vaengah, BOEIPA loh a yaak ni.
4 Be moved with anger, and sin not; meditate in your own hearts upon your bed, and be still. (Selah)
Na tlai nen khaw tholh uh boeh. Na thinko neh na thingkong dongah thui lamtah kuemsuem lah. (Selah)
5 Offer sacrifices of righteousness, and confide in Jehovah.
Duengnah hmueih te nawn lamtah BOEIPA dongah pangtung lah.
6 Many say, Who shall cause us to see good? Lift up upon us the light of thy countenance, O Jehovah.
Ulae kaimih a then aka tueng thai eh aka ti khaw yet. Aw BOEIPA na maelhmai kah a aa neh, kaimih soah han tue lah.
7 Thou hast put joy in my heart, more than in the time that their corn and their new wine was in abundance.
Cangpai neh misur thai a thawt tue vaengkah lakah ka lungbuei ah kohoenah nan paek.
8 In peace will I both lay me down and sleep; for thou, Jehovah, alone makest me to dwell in safety.
BOEIPA nang bueng daengloh, kai he ngaikhuek la kho nan sak sak dongah, ngaimong la ka yalh vetih ka ih puei ni.
