Psalms 141

1 LORD, I cry unto thee: make haste unto me; give ear unto my voice, when I cry unto thee.

Dāvida dziesma. Kungs, Tevi es piesaucu, steidzies pie manis, klausies uz manu balsi, kad es Tevi piesaucu.

2 Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.

Lai mana lūgšana Tavā priekšā top cienīta kā kvēpināmais upuris, manu roku pacelšana kā vakara upuris.

3 Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.

Kungs, sargi manu muti un pasargi manas lūpas.

4 Incline not my heart to any evil thing, to practise wicked works with men that work iniquity: and let me not eat of their dainties.

Nedod manai sirdij griezties uz ļaunu, bezdievīgu darbu darīt ar ļaundarītājiem, ka nebaudu no viņu kārumiem.

5 Let the righteous smite me; it shall be a kindness: and let him reprove me; it shall be an excellent oil, which shall not break my head: for yet my prayer also shall be in their calamities.

Lai taisnais mani sit, tā būs žēlastība, un lai viņš mani pārmāca, tā būs eļļa uz manu galvu, tam lai mana galva neliedzās; bet es vienmēr lūdzu pret viņu ļauniem darbiem.

6 When their judges are overthrown in stony places, they shall hear my words; for they are sweet.

No akmens kalniem viņu soģi lai top nogāzti; tad dzirdēs manus vārdus, ka tie mīlīgi.

7 Our bones are scattered at the grave’s mouth, as when one cutteth and cleaveth wood upon the earth. (Sheol h7585)

Kā zemi uzplēš un uzar, tā mūsu kauli ir izkaisīti līdz pašam kapam. (Sheol h7585)

8 But mine eyes are unto thee, O God the Lord: in thee is my trust; leave not my soul destitute.

Bet uz Tevi, Kungs, Dievs, manas acis raugās, uz Tevi paļaujos, neatstum manu dvēseli.

9 Keep me from the snares which they have laid for me, and the gins of the workers of iniquity.

Pasargi mani no tā valga, ko tie man ir izmetuši, un no ļauna darītāju slazdiem.

10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets, whilst that I withal escape.

Bezdievīgie kritīs savos tīklos, kamēr es iešu garām.
