Psalm 4
Luther Bibel 1545
4 (Ein Psalm Davids, vorzusingen, auf Saitenspiel.) Erhöre mich, wenn ich rufe, Gott meiner Gerechtigkeit, der du mich tröstest in Angst; sei mir gnädig und erhöre mein Gebet!
2 Liebe Herren, wie lange soll meine Ehre geschändet werden? Wie habt ihr das Eitle so lieb und die Lüge so gern! (Sela.)
3 Erkennet doch, daß der HERR seine Heiligen wunderbar führt; der HERR hört, wenn ich ihn anrufe.
4 Zürnet ihr, so sündiget nicht. Redet mit eurem Herzen auf dem Lager und harret. (Sela.)
5 Opfert Gerechtigkeit und hoffet auf den HERRN.
6 Viele sagen: "Wer wird uns Gutes sehen lassen?" Aber, HERR, erhebe über uns das Licht deines Antlitzes!
7 Du erfreuest mein Herz, ob jene gleich viel Wein und Korn haben.
8 Ich liege und schlafe ganz mit Frieden; denn allein du, HERR, hilfst mir, daß ich sicher wohne.

Psalm 4
American Standard Version
Evening prayer of trust in God.
For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm of David.
4 Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness;
Thou hast set me at large when I was in distress:
[a]Have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.
2 O ye sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonor?
How long will ye love vanity, and seek after falsehood? Selah
3 But know that Jehovah hath set apart for himself [b]him that is godly:
Jehovah will hear when I call unto him.
4 [c]Stand in awe, and sin not:
Commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah
5 Offer the sacrifices of righteousness,
And put your trust in Jehovah.
6 Many there are that say, Who will show us any good?
Jehovah, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.
7 Thou hast put gladness in my heart,
More than they have when their grain and their new wine are increased.
8 In peace will I both lay me down and sleep;
For thou, Jehovah, [d]alone makest me dwell in safety.
