Psalms 4

1

Unto the end, in verses. A psalm for David.

In finem, in carminibus. Psalmus David.

εἰς τὸ τέλος ἐν ψαλμοῖς ᾠδὴ τῷ Δαυιδ

2

When I called upon him, the God of my justice heard me: when I was in distress, thou hast enlarged me. Have mercy on me: and hear my prayer.

Cum invocarem exaudivit me Deus justitiæ meæ, in tribulatione dilatasti mihi. Miserere mei, et exaudi orationem meam.

ἐν τῷ ἐπικαλεῖσθαί με εἰσήκουσέν μου ὁ θεὸς τῆς δικαιοσύνης μου ἐν θλίψει ἐπλάτυνάς μοι οἰκτίρησόν με καὶ εἰσάκουσον τῆς προσευχῆς μου

3

O ye sons of men, how long will you be dull of heart? why do you love vanity, and seek after lying?

Filii hominum, usquequo gravi corde? ut quid diligitis vanitatem, et quæritis mendacium?

υἱοὶ ἀνθρώπων ἕως πότε βαρυκάρδιοι ἵνα τί ἀγαπᾶτε ματαιότητα καὶ ζητεῖτε ψεῦδος διάψαλμα

4

Know ye also that the Lord hath made his holy one wonderful: the Lord will hear me when I shall cry unto him.

Et scitote quoniam mirificavit Dominus sanctum suum; Dominus exaudiet me cum clamavero ad eum.

καὶ γνῶτε ὅτι ἐθαυμάστωσεν κύριος τὸν ὅσιον αὐτοῦ κύριος εἰσακούσεταί μου ἐν τῷ κεκραγέναι με πρὸς αὐτόν

5

Be ye angry, and sin not: the things you say in your hearts, be sorry for them upon your beds.

Irascimini, et nolite peccare; quæ dicitis in cordibus vestris, in cubilibus vestris compungimini.

ὀργίζεσθε καὶ μὴ ἁμαρτάνετε λέγετε ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις ὑμῶν καὶ ἐπὶ ταῖς κοίταις ὑμῶν κατανύγητε διάψαλμα

6

Offer up the sacrifice of justice, and trust in the Lord: many say, Who showeth us good things?

Sacrificate sacrificium justitiæ, et sperate in Domino. Multi dicunt : Quis ostendit nobis bona?

θύσατε θυσίαν δικαιοσύνης καὶ ἐλπίσατε ἐπὶ κύριον

7

The light of thy countenance, O Lord, is signed upon us: thou hast given gladness in my heart.

Signatum est super nos lumen vultus tui, Domine : dedisti lætitiam in corde meo.

πολλοὶ λέγουσιν τίς δείξει ἡμῖν τὰ ἀγαθά ἐσημειώθη ἐφ' ἡμᾶς τὸ φῶς τοῦ προσώπου σου κύριε

8

By the fruit of their corn, their wine, and oil, they rest:

A fructu frumenti, vini, et olei sui, multiplicati sunt.

ἔδωκας εὐφροσύνην εἰς τὴν καρδίαν μου ἀπὸ καιροῦ σίτου καὶ οἴνου καὶ ἐλαίου αὐτῶν ἐπληθύνθησαν

9

In peace in the self same I will sleep, and I will rest:

In pace in idipsum dormiam, et requiescam;

ἐν εἰρήνῃ ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτὸ κοιμηθήσομαι καὶ ὑπνώσω

10

For thou, O Lord, singularly hast settled me in hope.

quoniam tu, Domine, singulariter in spe constituisti me.

ὅτι σύ κύριε κατὰ μόνας ἐπ' ἐλπίδι κατῴκισάς με
