Psalm 4
New Life Version
Evening Prayer of Trust
4 Answer me when I call, O my God Who is right and good! You have made a way for me when I needed help. Be kind to me, and hear my prayer.
2 O sons of men, how long will you turn my honor into shame? How long will you love what is of no use, and run after lies? 3 Know that the Lord has set apart him who is God-like for Himself. The Lord hears when I call to Him.
4 Shake with anger and do not sin. When you are on your bed, look into your hearts and be quiet. 5 Give the gifts that are right and good, and trust in the Lord.
6 Many are asking, “Who will show us any good?” Let the light of Your face shine on us, O Lord. 7 You have filled my heart with more happiness than they have when there is much grain and wine. 8 I will lie down and sleep in peace. O Lord, You alone keep me safe.
Psalmi 4

Večernja molitva
Voditelju zbora, uz žičana glazbala. Davidova pjesma.
4 Odgovori mi kad te zovem,
Bože, koji me opravdavaš!
Olakšao si moje nevolje.
Smiluj se i čuj moje molitve.
2 Dokad ćete, ugledni ljudi,
moje dostojanstvo blatiti?
Zar ćete tratiti vrijeme
i protiv mene smišljati laži? Selah
3 Znajte da BOG čuva svoje vjerne.
BOG me čuje kad mu se molim.
4 Budite ljuti na mene,
ali ne činite grijeh.
Promislite dok ležite u krevetu,
ali ništa ne govorite. Selah
5 Prinesite BOGU prave žrtve,
u njega se pouzdajte.
6 Mnogo ih je koji govore:
»Želimo živjeti sretno,
budi nam dobar,[a] BOŽE.«
7 Ali, zbog tebe, ja imam više radosti
nego oni zbog svoga žita i vina.
8 Kada legnem, mirno spavam
jer ti mi pružaš sigurnost, BOŽE.
