< 詩篇 4 >
1 わが義をまもりたまふ神よ ねがはくはわが呼るときに答へたまへ わがなやみたる時なんぢ我をくつろがせたまへり ねがはくは我をあはれみ わが祈をききたまへ
For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm by David. Answer me when I call, God of my righteousness. Give me relief from my distress. Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer.
2 人の子よなんぢらわが榮をはぢしめて幾何時をへんとするか なんぢらむなしき事をこのみ虚偽をしたひていくそのときを經んとするか (セラ)
You sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonour? Will you love vanity and seek after falsehood? (Selah)
3 然どなんぢら知れ ヱホバは神をうやまふ人をわかちて己につかしめたまひしことを われヱホバによばはらば聽たまはん
But know that the LORD has set apart for himself him who is godly; The LORD will hear when I call to him.
4 なんぢら愼みをののきて罪ををかすなかれ 臥床にておのが心にかたりて默せ (セラ)
Stand in awe, and don’t sin. Search your own heart on your bed, and be still. (Selah)
Offer the sacrifices of righteousness. Put your trust in the LORD.
6 おほくの人はいふたれか嘉事をわれらに見するものあらんやと ヱホバよねがはくは聖顔の光をわれらの上にのぼらせたまへ
Many say, “Who will show us any good?” LORD, let the light of your face shine on us.
7 なんぢのわが心にあたへたまひし歓喜はかれらの穀物と酒との豊かなる時にまさりき
You have put gladness in my heart, more than when their grain and their new wine are increased.
8 われ安然にして臥またねぶらん ヱホバよわれを獨にて坦然にをらしむるものは汝なり
In peace I will both lay myself down and sleep, for you alone, LORD, make me live in safety.
