Psalms 13

1 To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David. How long, Jehovah, wilt thou forget me for ever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?

Dāvida dziesma. Dziedātāju vadonim. Cik ilgi, ak Kungs, Tu mani it visai aizmirsti? Cik ilgi Tu apslēpi Savu vaigu priekš manis?

2 How long shall I take counsel in my soul, with sorrow in my heart daily? how long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?

Cik ilgi man būs padomu meklēt savā dvēselē un savā sirdī ikdienas baiļoties? Cik ilgi mans ienaidnieks pār mani paaugstināsies?

3 Consider, answer me, O Jehovah my God! lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the [sleep of] death;

Skaties, paklausi mani, ak Kungs, mans Dievs, apgaismo manas acis, ka es nāvē neaizmiegu,

4 Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him! [lest] mine adversaries be joyful when I am moved.

Ka mans ienaidnieks nesaka: es viņu esmu pārvarējis, un ka mani pretinieki nepriecājās, ka es šaubos.

5 As for me, I have confided in thy loving-kindness; my heart shall be joyful in thy salvation.

Bet es cerēju uz Tavu žēlastību, mana sirds līksmojās iekš Tavas pestīšanas.

6 I will sing unto Jehovah, for he hath dealt bountifully with me.

Es dziedāšu Tam Kungam, ka Viņš man labu dara.
