Psalm 4
Psalmus 4
Cum invocárem exaudívit me Deus justítiae meae: * in tribulatióne dilatásti mihi.
Miserére mei, * et exáudi oratiónem meam.
Fílii hóminum, úsquequo gravi corde? * ut quid dilígitis vanitátem, et quáeritis mendácium?
Et scitóte quóniam mirificávit Dóminus sanctum suum: * Dóminus exáudiet me cum clamávero ad eum.
Irascímini, et nolíte peccáre: * quae dícitis in córdibus vestris, in cubílibus vestris compungímini.
Sacrificáte sacrifícium justítiae, et speráte in Dómino. * Multi dicunt: Quis osténdit nobis bona?
Signátum est super nos lumen vultus tui, Dómine: * dedísti laetítiam in corde meo.
A fructu fruménti, vini, et ólei sui * multiplicáti sunt.
In pace in idípsum * dórmiam, et requiéscam;
Quóniam tu, Dómine, singuláriter in spe * constituísti me.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper, * et in sáecula saeculórum. Amen.
Psalm 4
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.
O ye sons of men, how long will you be dull of heart? * Why do you love vanity, and seek after lying?
Know ye also that the Lord hath made his holy one wonderful: * the Lord will hear me when I shall cry unto him.
Be ye angry, and sin not: * the things you say in your hearts, be sorry for them upon your beds.
Offer up the sacrifice of justice, and trust in the Lord: * many say, Who sheweth us good things?
The light of thy countenance, O Lord, is signed upon us: * thou hast given gladness in my heart.
By the fruit of their corn, their wine, and oil, * they are multiplied.
In peace in the selfsame * I will sleep, and I will rest:
For thou, O Lord, singularly * hast settled me in hope.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
As it was in the beginning, is now, * and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
