< Psalms 54 >
1 “To the chief musician on Neginoth, a Maskil of David, When the Ziphim came and said to Saul, Behold, David is hiding himself with us.” O God, by thy name save me, and by thy strength grant me justice.
Dāvida mācības dziesma. Dziedātāju vadonim, uz koklēm. Kad Zifieši nāca un Saulam sacīja: vai Dāvids pie mums nav paslēpies? Ak Dievs atpestī mani caur Savu vārdu un nes man tiesu caur Savu varu.
2 O God, hear my prayer; give ear to the words of my mouth.
Ak Dievs, klausi manu lūgšanu, liec vērā, ko mana mute runā.
3 For strangers [to goodness] are risen up against me, and powerful oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set God before them. (Selah)
Jo svešinieki ceļas pret mani, un briesmīgi ļaudis meklē manu dvēseli; tie netur Dievu priekš savām acīm. (Sela)
4 Behold, God is a helper unto me: the Lord is among those that uphold my soul.
Redzi, Dievs man ir par palīgu; Tas Kungs ir tas, kas manu dvēseli uztur.
5 He will cause the evil to return upon those that regard me with envy: in thy truth cut them off.
Viņš maksās to ļaunumu maniem nicinātājiem; izdeldē tos pēc Tavas uzticības.
6 I will liberally sacrifice unto thee: I will give thanks unto thy name, O Lord; for it is good.
Tad es Tev upurēšu ar labu prātu, es pateikšos, Kungs, Tavam Vārdam, ka tas ir tik labs.
7 For out of all distress hath he delivered me: and my eye hath seen [its desire] on my enemies.
Jo Viņš mani izglābis no visām bēdām, ka mana acs ar prieku uzlūko manus ienaidniekus.
