Psalms 56

1 “To the chief musician upon Jonath-elem-rechokim, by David, a Michtham, when the Philistines seized him in Gath.” Be gracious unto me, O God; for man longeth to swallow me up; all the time he oppresseth me fighting.

Dāvida sirds dziesma dziedātāju vadonim, pēc: „mēmais balodis svešumā“; kad Fīlisti Gatā viņu bija saņēmuši. Apžēlojies par mani, ak Dievs, jo cilvēki mani grib aprīt; cauru dienu pretinieks mani apbēdina.

2 Those that regard me with envy long to swallow [me] up all the time; for many are they that fight against me, O thou Most High.

Mani ienaidnieki cauru dienu mani grib aprīt, jo daudz ir, kas man pretī stāv lepnībā.

3 The day [when] I am afraid, I will still trust in thee.

Baiļu dienā es uz Tevi paļaujos.

4 In God will I praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not be afraid: what can flesh do unto me?

Iekš Dieva es slavēšu Viņa vārdu, es paļaušos uz Dievu un nebīšos; ko miesa man darīs?

5 All the day they wrest my words: against me are all their thoughts for evil.

Cauru dienu tie pārgroza manus vārdus, visas viņu domas pret mani ir uz ļaunu.

6 They come together in troops, they hide themselves, they are those that watch my heels, as though they hoped [to take] my soul.

Tie turas kopā un glūn, tie apsargā manas pēdas, tā kā kas pēc manas dvēseles tīko.

7 Because of their wrong-doing let me escape from them: in anger cast down the people, O God.

Vai tad tie ar tādu netaisnību izglābsies? Gāz zemē, ak Dievs, tos ļaudis iekš dusmības!

8 My wanderings hast thou well numbered: put thou my tears into thy bottle; behold, they are numbered by thee.

Tu skaiti manas bēgšanas, saņem traukā manas asaras; vai tās nav Tavā grāmatā?

9 Then shall my enemies retire backward on the day when I call [on thee]: this I know—that God is for me.

Tad mani ienaidnieki griezīsies atpakaļ tai dienā, kad es saukšu; to es zinu, ka Dievs ir ar mani.

10 In God will I praise the word: in the Lord will I praise the word.

Iekš Dieva es slavēšu to vārdu, iekš Tā Kunga es slavēšu to vārdu.

11 In God have I put my trust; I will not be afraid: what can man do unto me?

Es paļaujos uz Dievu, es nebīšos; ko cilvēki man var darīt?

12 Upon me, O God, [rest] thy vows: I will pay thanksgiving offerings unto thee.

Tev, Dievs, es esmu apsolījies, Tev es maksāšu pateicības upurus.

13 For thou hast delivered my soul from death—yea, behold, my feet from slipping, that I may walk before God in the light of the life.

Jo Tu manu dvēseli esi izglābis no nāves, ir manu dvēseli no slīdēšanas, ka es priekš Dieva vaiga staigāju dzīvības gaismā.
