Psalmorum 4
1 In finem in carminibus, Psalmus David. Cum invocarem exaudivit me Deus iustitiæ meæ: in tribulatione dilatasti mihi. Miserere mei, et exaudi orationem meam. Filii hominum usquequo gravi corde? ut quid diligitis vanitatem, et quæritis mendacium?
Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness: you have enlarged me when I was in distress; have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.
2 Et scitote quoniam mirificavit Dominus sanctum suum: Dominus exaudiet me cum clamavero ad eum.
O all of you sons of men, how long will all of you turn my glory into shame? how long will all of you love vanity, and seek after leasing? (Selah)
3 Irascimini, et nolite peccare: quæ dicitis in cordibus vestris, in cubilibus vestris compungimini.
But know that the LORD has set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD will hear when I call unto him.
4 Sacrificate sacrificium iustitiæ, et sperate in Domino. multi dicunt: Quis ostendit nobis bona?
Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. (Selah)
5 Signatum est super nos lumen vultus tui Domine: dedisti lætitiam in corde meo.
Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD.
6 A fructu frumenti, vini, et olei sui multiplicati sunt.
There be many that say, Who will show us any good? LORD, lift you up the light of your countenance upon us.
7 In pace in idipsum dormiam, et requiescam;
You have put gladness in my heart, more than in the time that their corn and their wine increased.
8 Quoniam tu Domine singulariter in spe constituisti me.
I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for you, LORD, only make me dwell in safety.
