Psalms 79
1 A Melody of Asaph. O God, nations, Have entered thine inheritance, Have profaned thy holy temple, —Have laid Jerusalem in heaps:
Asafa dziesma. Ak Dievs, pagāni Tavā tautā ir ielauzušies, tie ir sagānījuši Tavu svēto namu un Jeruzālemi darījuši par akmeņu kopām;
2 They have given, The dead bodies of thy servants, As food for the birds of the heavens, The flesh of thy men of lovingkindness, Unto the wild beast of the earth:
Tavu kalpu apkautas miesas tie ir devuši putniem apakš debess par barību, Tavu svēto miesas zemes zvēriem.
3 They have poured out their blood like water, Round about Jerusalem, With none to bury.
Viņu asinis tie ir izlējuši ap Jeruzālemi kā ūdeni, un neviena nebija, kas apraka.
4 We have become, A reproach to our neighbours, —A mockery and a derision, to them who are round about us.
Mēs saviem kaimiņiem esam palikuši par apsmieklu, mūs apmēda un apsmej tie, kas ap mums.
5 How long, O Yahweh, wilt thou be angry utterly? Shall thy jealousy, burn like fire?
Cik ilgi, ak Kungs, vai tad Tu gribi mūžīgi dusmot? Vai tad Tavai bardzībai būs degt kā ugunij?
6 Pour out thy wrath, Upon the nations that have not known thee—and, Upon the kingdoms that, on thy Name, have not called.
Izgāz Savu dusmību pār tiem pagāniem, kas Tevi nepazīst, un pār tām valstīm, kas Tavu Vārdu nepiesauc.
7 For he hath devoured Jacob, —And, his dwelling-place, have they laid waste.
Jo tie Jēkabu ēduši un postījuši viņa dzīvokļus.
8 Do not remember against us former iniquities, —Haste thee, let thy compassions, come to meet us, For we have been brought very low!
Nepiemini mums mūsu tēvu noziegumus; steidzies, Tava sirds žēlastība lai mums nāk pretim, jo mēs esam ļoti panīkuši.
9 Help us, O God of our salvation, on account of the glory of thy Name, —Rescue us then, and put a propitiatory-covering over our sins, For the sake of thy Name.
Palīdzi mums, ak Dievs, mūsu Pestītājs, Sava godājamā vārda dēļ un izglāb mūs un piedod mūsu grēkus Sava vārda dēļ.
10 Wherefore should the nations say—Where is their God? Let him be known among the nations before our eyes! [Yea! By] the avenging of the blood of thy servants which hath been shed!
Kāpēc pagāniem būs sacīt: kur ir viņu Dievs? Lai pagāni priekš mūsu acīm atzīst, ka Tu atriebi Savu kalpu izlietās asinis.
11 Let the groaning of the prisoner, come in before thee, —According to the greatness of thine arm, Set free them who are appointed to death.
Lai cietumnieku nopūšanās nāk Tavā priekšā: uzturi dzīvus nāves bērnus pēc Tava lielā elkoņa,
12 Return, therefore, unto our neighbours—Sevenfold, into their own bosom, The reproach wherewith they have reproached thee, O Adonay!
Un atmaksā septiņkārt mūsu kaimiņiem viņu klēpī to nievāšanu, ar ko tie Tevi, Kungs, nievājuši.
13 So, we, thy people, and the sheep of thy pasture, will give thanks unto thee, to times age-abiding, —To generation after generation, will we recount thy praise.
Tad mēs, Tavi ļaudis un Tavas ganības avis, Tevi teiksim mūžīgi, Tavu slavu sludināsim uz radu radiem.
