JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1In finem, in carminibus. Psalmus David.
1(4-1) For the Leader; with string-music. A Psalm of David. (4-2) Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness, Thou who didst set me free when I was in distress; be gracious unto me, and hear my prayer.
2[Cum invocarem exaudivit me Deus justitiæ meæ, in tribulatione dilatasti mihi. Miserere mei, et exaudi orationem meam.
2(4-3) O ye sons of men, how long shall my glory be put to shame, in that ye love vanity, and seek after falsehood? Selah
3Filii hominum, usquequo gravi corde? ut quid diligitis vanitatem, et quæritis mendacium?
3(4-4) But know that the LORD hath set apart the godly man as His own; the LORD will hear when I call unto Him.
4Et scitote quoniam mirificavit Dominus sanctum suum; Dominus exaudiet me cum clamavero ad eum.
4(4-5) Tremble, and sin not; commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah
5Irascimini, et nolite peccare; quæ dicitis in cordibus vestris, in cubilibus vestris compungimini.
5(4-6) Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD.
6Sacrificate sacrificium justitiæ, et sperate in Domino. Multi dicunt: Quis ostendit nobis bona?
6(4-7) Many there are that say: 'Oh that we could see some good!' LORD, lift Thou up the light of Thy countenance upon us.
7Signatum est super nos lumen vultus tui, Domine: dedisti lætitiam in corde meo.
7(4-8) Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than when their corn and their wine increase.
8A fructu frumenti, vini, et olei sui, multiplicati sunt.
8(4-9) In peace will I both lay me down and sleep; for Thou, LORD, makest me dwell alone in safety.
9In pace in idipsum dormiam, et requiescam;
