< Psalms 57 >

1 For the choirmaster. To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” A Miktam of David, when he fled from Saul into the cave. Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy, for in You my soul takes refuge. In the shadow of Your wings I will take shelter until the danger has passed.
Dāvida sirds dziesma. Dziedātāju vadonim, pēc: „nesamaitā“; kad tas no Saula bēga alā. Apžēlojies par mani, ak Dievs, apžēlojies par mani, jo uz Tevi cerē mana dvēsele, un apakš Tavu spārnu ēnas es gribu cerēt, kamēr nelaime būs pārgājusi.
2 I cry out to God Most High, to God who fulfills His purpose for me.
Es piesaukšu Dievu, to visuaugsto, to stipro Dievu, kas par mani visu izdarīs.
3 He reaches down from heaven and saves me; He rebukes those who trample me. (Selah) God sends forth His loving devotion and His truth.
Viņš sūta no debesīm un palīdz man, un apkauno manu aprijēju. (Sela) Dievs sūta Savu žēlastību un patiesību.
4 My soul is among the lions; I lie down with ravenous beasts— with men whose teeth are spears and arrows, whose tongues are sharp swords.
Mana dvēsele ir starp lauvām; es guļu starp cilvēku bērniem kā starp liesmām; viņu zobi ir šķēpi un bultas, un viņu mēle ass zobens.
5 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; may Your glory cover all the earth.
Parādi, Dievs, Savu augstību pār debesīm, un Savu godību pār visu pasauli!
6 They spread a net for my feet; my soul was despondent. They dug a pit before me, but they themselves have fallen into it!
Tie izpleš tīklu maniem soļiem, mana dvēsele ir nospiesta; manā priekšā tie bedri rakuši, paši krituši iekšā. (Sela)
7 My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast. I will sing and make music.
Mana sirds ir droša, Dievs, mana sirds ir droša, es dziedāšu un slavēšu.
8 Awake, my glory! Awake, O harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn.
Uzmosties, mans gods, uzmostaties, stabules un kokles, es uzmodīšos ar rīta blāzmu.
9 I will praise You, O Lord, among the nations; I will sing Your praises among the peoples.
Es Tev pateikšos, Kungs, starp tiem ļaudīm, es Tevi slavēšu starp tautām.
10 For Your loving devotion reaches to the heavens, and Your faithfulness to the clouds.
Jo Tava žēlastība ir liela līdz debesīm, un Tava patiesība līdz padebešiem.
11 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; may Your glory cover all the earth.
Parādi, Dievs, Savu augstību pār debesīm, Savu godību pār visu pasauli.
