< Psalms 5 >
1 To the chief music-maker on wind instruments. A Psalm. Of David. Give ear to my words, O Lord; give thought to my heart-searchings.
Untuk pemimpin biduan. Dengan permainan suling. Mazmur Daud. Berilah telinga kepada perkataanku, ya TUHAN, indahkanlah keluh kesahku.
2 Let the voice of my cry come to you, my King and my God; for to you will I make my prayer.
Perhatikanlah teriakku minta tolong, ya Rajaku dan Allahku, sebab kepada-Mulah aku berdoa.
3 My voice will come to you in the morning, O Lord; in the morning will I send my prayer to you, and keep watch.
TUHAN, pada waktu pagi Engkau mendengar seruanku, pada waktu pagi aku mengatur persembahan bagi-Mu, dan aku menunggu-nunggu.
4 For you are not a God who takes pleasure in wrongdoing; there is no evil with you.
Sebab Engkau bukanlah Allah yang berkenan kepada kefasikan; orang jahat takkan menumpang pada-Mu.
5 The sons of pride have no place before you; you are a hater of all workers of evil.
Pembual tidak akan tahan di depan mata-Mu; Engkau membenci semua orang yang melakukan kejahatan.
6 You will send destruction on those whose words are false; the cruel man and the man of deceit are hated by the Lord.
Engkau membinasakan orang-orang yang berkata bohong, TUHAN jijik melihat penumpah darah dan penipu.
7 But as for me, I will come into your house, in the full measure of your mercy; and in your fear I will give worship, turning my eyes to your holy Temple.
Tetapi aku, berkat kasih setia-Mu yang besar, aku akan masuk ke dalam rumah-Mu, sujud menyembah ke arah bait-Mu yang kudus dengan takut akan Engkau.
8 Be my guide, O Lord, in the ways of your righteousness, because of those who are against me; make your way straight before my face.
TUHAN, tuntunlah aku dalam keadilan-Mu karena seteruku; ratakanlah jalan-Mu di depanku.
9 For no faith may be put in their words; their inner part is nothing but evil; their throat is like an open place for the dead; smooth are the words of their tongues.
Sebab perkataan mereka tidak ada yang jujur, batin mereka penuh kebusukan, kerongkongan mereka seperti kubur ternganga, lidah mereka merayu-rayu.
10 Send them to destruction, O Lord; let their evil designs be the cause of their fall; let them be forced out by all their sins; because they have gone against your authority.
Biarlah mereka menanggung kesalahan mereka, ya Allah, biarlah mereka jatuh karena rancangannya sendiri; buanglah mereka karena banyaknya pelanggaran mereka, sebab mereka memberontak terhadap Engkau.
11 But let all those who put their faith in you be glad with cries of joy at all times, and let all the lovers of your name be glad in you.
Tetapi semua orang yang berlindung pada-Mu akan bersukacita, mereka akan bersorak-sorai selama-lamanya, karena Engkau menaungi mereka; dan karena Engkau akan bersukaria orang-orang yang mengasihi nama-Mu.
12 For you, Lord, will send a blessing on the upright man; your grace will be round him, and you will be his strength.
Sebab Engkaulah yang memberkati orang benar, ya TUHAN; Engkau memagari dia dengan anugerah-Mu seperti perisai.
