Psalm 4
Förtröstansfull aftonbön i nöden
1 För sångmästaren, till stränginstrument. En psalm av David.
2 Svara mig när jag ropar,
du min rättfärdighets Gud.
När jag är trängd, ger du mig utrymme.
Var mig nådig och hör min bön.
3 Ni barn till höga herrar,
hur länge skall ni kränka min heder?
Hur länge skall ni älska tomhet
och fara efter lögn? Sela.
4 Ni skall veta hur förunderligt
Herren tar sig an den fromme.
Herren hör när jag ropar till honom.
5 Grips ni av vrede, så synda inte!
Tänk efter i era hjärtan under nattens vila
och var stilla. Sela.
6 Bär fram rätta offer
och förtrösta på Herren.
7 Många säger: "Vem kan låta oss se det goda?"
Herre, låt ditt ansiktes ljus lysa över oss!
8 Du har skänkt mitt hjärta glädje,
mer än då man får säd och vin i mängd.
9 I frid kan jag lägga mig ner och sova,
ty du, Herre, du låter mig bo i trygghet.

Psalm 4
King James Version
4 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.
2 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.
3 But know that the Lord hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the Lord will hear when I call unto him.
4 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 the Lord.
6 There be many that say, Who will shew us any good? Lord, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.
7 Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than in the time that their corn and their wine increased.
8 I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, Lord, only makest me dwell in safety.
