Mga Awit 4
Magandang Balita Biblia
Panalangin sa Gabi
Katha ni David upang awitin ng Punong Mang-aawit; sa saliw ng instrumentong may kuwerdas.
4 Sagutin mo po ang aking pagtawag,
O Diyos, na aking kalasag!
Sa kagipitan ko, ako'y iyong tinulungan,
kaawaan mo ako ngayon, dalangin ko'y pakinggan.
2 Kayong mga tao, hanggang kailan ninyo ako hahamakin?
Ang walang kabuluhan at kasinungalingan,
hanggang kailan ninyo iibigin? (Selah)[a]
3 Dapat ninyong malamang itinalaga ni Yahweh ang matuwid,
kapag tumatawag ako sa kanya, siya'y nakikinig.
4 Huwag(A) hayaang magkasala ka nang dahil sa galit;
sa iyong silid, pag-isipa't ika'y manahimik. (Selah)[b]
5 Nararapat na handog, inyong ialay,
pagtitiwala n'yo'y kay Yahweh ibigay.
6 Tanong ng marami, “Sinong tutulong sa atin?”
Ikaw, O Yahweh, ang totoong mahabagin!
7 Puso ko'y iyong pinuno ng lubos na kagalakan,
higit pa sa pagkain at alak na inumin.
8 Sa aking paghiga, nakakatulog nang mahimbing,
pagkat ikaw, Yahweh, ang nag-iingat sa akin.

Psalm 4
Good News Translation
Evening Prayer for Help[a]
4 Answer me when I pray,
O God, my defender!
When I was in trouble, you helped me.
Be kind to me now and hear my prayer.
2 How long will you people insult me?
How long will you love what is worthless
and go after what is false?
3 Remember that the Lord has chosen the righteous for his own,
and he hears me when I call to him.
4 (A)Tremble with fear and stop sinning;
think deeply about this,
when you lie in silence on your beds.
5 Offer the right sacrifices to the Lord,
and put your trust in him.
6 There are many who pray:
“Give us more blessings, O Lord.
Look on us with kindness!”
7 But the joy that you have given me
is more than they will ever have
with all their grain and wine.
8 When I lie down, I go to sleep in peace;
you alone, O Lord, keep me perfectly safe.
