Salmos 4

American Standard Version

1Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness; Thou hast set me at large when I was in distress: Have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.

2O ye sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonor? How long will ye love vanity, and seek after falsehood? [Selah

3But know that Jehovah hath set apart for himself him that is godly: Jehovah will hear when I call unto him.

4Stand in awe, and sin not: Commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. [Selah

5Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, And put your trust in Jehovah.

6Many there are that say, Who will show us any good? Jehovah, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.

7Thou hast put gladness in my heart, More than they have when their grain and their new wine are increased.

8In peace will I both lay me down and sleep; For thou, Jehovah, alone makest me dwell in safety.

Reina-Valera 1909

1Al Músico principal: sobre Neginoth: Salmo de David. RESPÓNDEME cuando clamo, oh Dios de mi justicia: estando en angustia, tú me hiciste ensanchar: ten misericordia de mí, y oye mi oración.

2Hijos de los hombres, ¿hasta cuándo volveréis mi honra en infamia, amaréis la vanidad, y buscaréis la mentira? (Selah.)

3Sabed pues, que Jehová hizo apartar al pío para sí: Jehová oirá cuando yo á él clamare.

4Temblad, y no pequéis: conversad en vuestro corazón sobre vuestra cama, y desistid. (Selah.)

5Ofreced sacrificios de justicia, y confiad en Jehová.

6Muchos dicen: ¿Quién nos mostrará el bien? Alza sobre nosotros, oh Jehová, la luz de tu rostro.

7Tú diste alegría en mi corazón, más que tienen ellos en el tiempo que se multiplicó su grano y su mosto.

8En paz me acostaré, y asimismo dormiré; porque solo tú, Jehová, me harás estar confiado.

King James Version

1Hear 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.

2O ye sons of men, how long will ye turn my glory into shame? how long will ye love vanity, and seek after leasing? Selah.

3But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD will hear when I call unto him.

4Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah.

5Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD.

6There be many that say, Who will shew us any good? LORD, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.

7Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than in the time that their corn and their wine increased.

8I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety.
