求助的晚禱

大衛的詩,交給樂長,弦樂器伴奏。

稱我為義人的上帝啊!
我呼求的時候,求你回答。
你曾救我脫離困境,
現在求你憐憫我,
垂聽我的禱告。
世人啊!你們把我的榮耀變為羞辱要到何時呢?
你們追求虛謊之事要到何時呢?(細拉)
要知道,耶和華已經把敬虔人分別出來,使之聖潔,歸祂自己。
祂必垂聽我的祈求。
不要因生氣而犯罪;
躺在床上的時候要默然思想。(細拉)
要獻上當獻的祭物,
信靠耶和華。
許多人說:「誰會善待我們呢?」
耶和華啊,
求你的聖容光照我們。
你使我比那收穫五穀新酒的人更喜樂。
只有你耶和華使我安然居住,
我必高枕無憂。

求助的晚祷

称我为义人的上帝啊!
我呼求的时候,求你回答。
你曾救我脱离困境,
现在求你怜悯我,
垂听我的祷告。
世人啊!你们把我的荣耀变为羞辱要到何时呢?
你们追求虚谎之事要到何时呢?(细拉)

祂必垂听我的祈求。
不要因生气而犯罪;
躺在床上的时候要默然思想。(细拉)
要献上当献的祭物,

耶和华啊,
求你的圣容光照我们。
你使我比那收获五谷新酒的人更喜乐。
只有你耶和华使我安然居住,
我必高枕无忧。

An Evening Prayer

For the director of music. With stringed instruments. A song of David.

Answer me when I pray to you,
    my God who does what is right.
Lift the load that I carry.
    Be kind to me and hear my prayer.

People, how long will you turn my honor into shame?
    You love what is false, and you look for new lies. Selah
You know that the Lord has chosen for himself those who are loyal to him.
    The Lord listens when I pray to him.
When you are angry, do not sin.
    Think about these things quietly
    as you go to bed. Selah
Do what is right as a sacrifice to the Lord.
    And trust the Lord.

Many people ask,
    “Who will give us anything good?
    Lord, be kind to us.”
But you have made me very happy.
    I am happier than they are,
    even with all their grain and wine.
I go to bed and sleep in peace.
    Lord, only you keep me safe.

Psalm 4[a]

For the director of music. With stringed instruments. A psalm of David.

Answer me(A) when I call to you,
    my righteous God.
Give me relief from my distress;(B)
    have mercy(C) on me and hear my prayer.(D)

How long will you people turn my glory(E) into shame?(F)
    How long will you love delusions and seek false gods[b]?[c](G)
Know that the Lord has set apart his faithful servant(H) for himself;
    the Lord hears(I) when I call to him.

Tremble and[d] do not sin;(J)
    when you are on your beds,(K)
    search your hearts and be silent.
Offer the sacrifices of the righteous
    and trust in the Lord.(L)

Many, Lord, are asking, “Who will bring us prosperity?”
    Let the light of your face shine on us.(M)
Fill my heart(N) with joy(O)
    when their grain and new wine(P) abound.

In peace(Q) I will lie down and sleep,(R)
    for you alone, Lord,
    make me dwell in safety.(S)

  4. Psalm 4:4 Or In your anger (see Septuagint)

Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness: thou hast enlarged me when I was in distress; have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.

O ye sons of men, how long will ye turn my glory into shame? how long will ye love vanity, and seek after leasing? Selah.

But know that the Lord hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the Lord will hear when I call unto him.

Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah.

Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the Lord.

There be many that say, Who will shew us any good? Lord, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.

Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than in the time that their corn and their wine increased.

I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, Lord, only makest me dwell in safety.
