Psalms 17
1 A Prayer of David. Hear, O Yahweh, the right, Attend to my loud cry, Give ear unto my prayer, on lips that would not deceive:
Denggem ti pakaasik para iti hustisia, O Yahweh; ipangagmo ti iyaawagko iti tulong! Dengngem ti kararagko babaen kadagiti bibig nga awan panangallilaw.
2 From before thee, let my sentence come forth, Thine eyes, behold with equity.
Aggapu koma iti presensiam ti pannakaukomko; makita koma dagiti matam ti nalinteg!
3 Thou hast tested my heart, hast made inspection by night, hast refined me until thou couldst find nothing, Had I devised evil, my mouth should not have transgressed:
No subokem ti pusok, no umayka kaniak iti rabii, dalusannak ket awanto ti aniaman a masarakam a dakes a pangpanggep; saanto nga agbasol ti ngiwatko.
4 As for the workings of men, By the word of thy lips, have, I, taken heed of the paths of the violent one.
No maipapan kadagiti ar-aramid ti sangkatao-an, babaen kadagiti balikas iti bibigmo nga inyadayok ti bagik manipud kadagiti wagas dagiti awanan linteg.
5 Thou hast held fast my goings on to thy ways, My footsteps have not been shaken:
Sititibker a nagtalinaed dagiti addangko kadagiti dalanmo; saan a naikaglis dagiti sakak.
6 I, have called upon thee, for thou wilt answer me, O GOD, —Incline thine ear unto me, Hear thou my speech:
Umawagak kenka, ta sungbatannak, O Dios; Isangom ti lapayagmo kaniak ket dumngegka no agsaoak.
7 Let thy lovingkindness be distinguished, thou Saviour of such as seek refuge from them who lift themselves up against thy right hand.
Ipakitam ti kinapudno iti tulagmo iti nakaskasdaaw a wagas, sika a mangisalsalakan babaen iti makannawan nga imam kadagiti agkamang kenka manipud kadagiti kabusorda!
8 Guard me, as the pupil of the eye, —Under the shadow of thy wings, wilt thou hide me:
Salaknibannak a kas napateg iti imatangmo; ilemmengnak iti anniniwan dagiti payyakmo,
9 From the face of lawless ones who have treated me with violence, the foes of my soul, who come round against me:
manipud iti presensia dagiti nadangkes a tattao a mangdarup kaniak, dagiti kabusorko a manglawlawlaw kaniak,
10 Their own fat [heart], have they shut up, —With their mouth, have they spoken proudly.
Awan asida iti siasinoman; napalangguad nga agsasao dagiti ngiwatda.
11 As for our own goings, now, have they surrounded us, —Their eyes, they fix, bending to the earth:
Pinalawlawanda dagiti addangko. Inkitada dagiti matada a mangitumba kaniak iti daga.
12 His likeness, is as a lion, that longeth to rend, and as a young lion, lurking in secret places.
Kaslada maysa a leon a magagaran iti biktimaenna, kasla urbon a leon a nakakukot kadagiti nalemmeng a lugar.
13 Rise, Yahweh! Confront his face, Bring him down, Deliver my soul from the lawless one [who is] thy sword:
Bumangonka, O Yahweh! Rautem ida! Imamegmo ida! Ispalem ti biagko manipud kadagiti nadangkes babaen iti kampilanmo!
14 From men [who are] thy hand, O Yahweh, From the men of this age, whose portion, is among the living, and, with thy treasure, thou fillest their bosom, —They must be satisfied with sons, And must leave their abundance to their children: —
Ispalennak manipud kadagiti tattao babaen iti imam, O Yahweh, manipud kadagiti tattao iti daytoy a lubong a ti kinarang-ayda ket iti daytoy laeng a biag! Bussogemto iti kinabaknang dagiti tian dagiti tattao nga ipatpategmo; maaddaandanto iti adu nga annak ket ibatidanto dagiti kinabaknangda kadagiti annakda.
15 I, in righteousness, shall behold thy face, Shall be satisfied when awakened by a vision of thee.
No maipapan kaniak, makitakto ti rupam iti kinalinteg; mapnekakto, inton makariingak, iti imatangmo.
