< Psalms 5 >
1 For the end, a Psalm of David, concerning her that inherits. Listen to my words, O Lord, attend to my cry.
Untuk pemimpin kor. Dengan permainan suling. Mazmur Daud. Ya TUHAN, dengarlah kata-kataku, perhatikanlah keluh-kesahku.
2 Attend to the voice of my supplication, my King, and my God: for to you, O Lord, will I pray.
Indahkanlah seruanku dan tolonglah aku, ya Rajaku dan Allahku.
3 In the morning you shall hear my voice: in the morning will I wait upon you, and will look up.
Sebab kepada-Mu aku berdoa, ya TUHAN, dengarlah seruanku di waktu pagi. Pagi-pagi kubawa persembahanku dan kunantikan jawaban-Mu, ya TUHAN.
4 For you are not a god that desires iniquity; neither shall the worker of wickedness dwell with you.
Engkau Allah yang tak suka akan kejahatan; orang jahat tak boleh bertamu pada-Mu.
5 Neither shall the transgressors continue in your sight: you hate, O Lord, all them that work iniquity.
Engkau tak tahan melihat orang congkak, Kaubenci orang yang berbuat jahat.
6 You will destroy all that speak falsehood: the Lord abhors the bloody and deceitful man.
Kaubinasakan orang-orang yang suka membohong, penipu dan pembunuh Kaupandang rendah.
7 But I will enter into your house in the multitude of your mercy: I will worship in your fear toward your holy temple.
Tetapi karena kasih-Mu yang besar, aku boleh masuk ke dalam Rumah-Mu. Kusujud ke arah Rumah-Mu yang suci, dan kusembah Engkau dengan khidmat.
8 Lead me, O Lord, in your righteousness because of mine enemies; make my way plain before your face.
Ya TUHAN, amat banyaklah musuhku! Bimbinglah aku untuk melakukan kehendak-Mu, dan tunjukkanlah jalan-Mu yang harus kutempuh.
9 For there is no truth in their mouth; their heart is vain; their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit.
Sebab perkataan musuhku tak dapat dipercaya; hati mereka penuh rencana jahat. Kata-kata mereka manis memikat, tetapi batin mereka penuh kebusukan.
10 Judge them, O God; let them fail of their counsels: cast them out according to the abundance of their ungodliness; for they have provoked you, O Lord.
Hukumlah mereka, ya Allah, biar mereka celaka karena rencananya sendiri. Usirlah mereka karena banyaklah dosa mereka, sebab mereka telah berontak terhadap Engkau.
11 But let all that trust on you be glad in you: they shall exult for ever, and you shall dwell among them; and all that love your name shall rejoice in you.
Semoga semua orang yang berlindung pada-Mu bergembira dan bersorak-sorai selama-lamanya. Lindungilah orang-orang yang mencintai Engkau, supaya mereka bersukacita karena Engkau.
12 For you, Lord, shall bless the righteous: you have compassed us as with a shield of favor.
Sebab Kauberkati orang yang setia kepada-Mu, Kaulindungi mereka dengan kasih-Mu.
