< Psalms 109 >

1 God, you are the one whom I praise, [So please] answer [my prayer],
Huwag kang mapayapa, Oh Dios na aking kapurihan;
2 because wicked people slander me and tell [MTY] lies about me.
Sapagka't ang bibig ng masama at ang bibig ng magdaraya ay ibinuka nila laban sa akin: sila'y nangagsalita sa akin na may sinungaling na dila.
3 They are constantly saying that they hate me, and they say evil things about me for no reason.
Kanilang kinulong ako sa palibot ng mga salitang pagtatanim, at nagsilaban sa akin ng walang kadahilanan.
4 I show them that I want to be their friends and I pray for them, but [instead of being kind to me], they say that I have done evil things.
Sa kabayaran ng aking pagibig ay mga kaaway ko (sila) nguni't ako'y tumatalaga sa dalangin.
5 In return for my doing good things for them and loving them, they do evil things to me and hate me.
At iginanti nila sa akin ay kasamaan sa mabuti, at pagtatanim sa pagibig ko.
6 They said, “Appoint a wicked [judge] who will judge him, and bring in one of his enemies who will stand up and accuse him.
Lagyan mo ng masamang tao siya: at tumayo nawa ang isang kaaway sa kaniyang kanan.
7 And cause that when the trial [ends], [the judge will] declare that he is guilty, and that [even] his prayer will be considered to be a sin.
Pagka siya'y nahatulan, lumabas nawa siyang salarin; at maging kasalanan nawa ang kaniyang dalangin.
8 [Then], cause that he will soon die and that someone else will have his job/work (OR, possessions).
Maging kaunti nawa ang kaniyang mga kaarawan; at kunin nawa ng iba ang kaniyang katungkulan.
9 Cause that his children will not have a father any more and that his wife will become a widow.
Maulila nawa ang kaniyang mga anak, at mabao ang kaniyang asawa.
10 Cause that his children will be forced to leave the ruined homes that they have been living in and wander around begging for food.
Magsilaboy nawa ang kaniyang mga anak, at mangagpalimos; at hanapin nila ang kanilang pagkain sa kanilang mga dakong guho.
11 Cause that all the people to whom he owed money will seize all his property; Cause that strangers will take away everything that he worked to acquire.
Kunin nawa ng manglulupig ang lahat niyang tinatangkilik; at samsamin ng mga taga ibang lupa ang kaniyang mga gawa.
12 Cause that [while he is still living] no one will be kind to him, and [after he dies], cause that no one will pity his children.
Mawalan nawa ng maawa sa kaniya; at mawalan din ng maawa sa kaniyang mga anak na ulila.
13 Cause that all his descendants will die and that his grandchildren will not remember who he [MTY] was.
Mahiwalay nawa ang kaniyang kaapuapuhan; sa lahing darating ay mapawi ang kaniyang pangalan.
14 Yahweh, remember [and do not forgive] his ancestors for the evil things that they did, and do not [even] forgive the sins that his mother committed;
Maalaala nawa ng Panginoon ang kasamaan ng kaniyang mga magulang; at huwag mapawi ang kasalanan ng kaniyang ina,
15 think about his sins continually, and cause that his name will be completely forgotten.
Mangalagay nawa silang lagi sa harap ng Panginoon, upang ihiwalay niya ang alaala sa kanila sa lupa.
16 He never was kind to anyone; he (persecuted/cause problems for) poor and needy [people] and even killed helpless [people].
Sapagka't hindi niya naalaalang magpakita ng kaawaan, kundi hinabol ang dukha at mapagkailangan, at ang may bagbag na puso, upang patayin.
17 He liked to curse [people]. [So] cause those terrible things that he requested to happen to others to happen to him! He did not want to bless [others], [so] cause that no one will bless him!
Oo, kaniyang inibig ang sumpa, at dumating sa kaniya; at hindi siya nalulugod sa pagpapala, at malayo sa kaniya.
18 He cursed other people [as often/easily] as he put on his clothes [SIM]; cause that the terrible things that he wanted to happen to others will [happen to him and] enter his body like water [that he drinks] [SIM], like [olive] oil soaks into a person’s bones [when it is rubbed on his skin] [SIM].
Nagsusuot naman siya ng sumpa na parang kaniyang damit, at nasok sa kaniyang mga loob na bahagi na parang tubig, at parang langis sa kaniyang mga buto.
19 Cause that those terrible things will cling to him like his clothes and be around him like the belt that he wears every day.”
Sa kaniya'y maging gaya nawa ng balabal na ibinabalabal, at gaya ng bigkis na ibinibigkis na lagi.
20 Yahweh, I want you to punish all my enemies that way, those who say evil things about me.
Ito ang kagantihan sa aking mga kaaway na mula sa Panginoon, at sa kanilang nangagsasalita ng kasamaan laban sa aking kaluluwa.
21 But Yahweh, my God, do good things for me in order that I may honor you; rescue me [from my enemies] because your faithfully loving me is good.
Nguni't gumawa kang kasama ko, Oh Dios na Panginoon, alang-alang sa iyong pangalan: sapagka't ang iyong kagandahang-loob ay mabuti, iligtas mo ako,
22 [I ask you to do this] because I am poor and needy and my inner being is (full of pain/very troubled/discouraged).
Sapagka't ako'y dukha at mapagkailangan, at ang aking puso ay nasaktan sa loob ko.
23 [I think that] my time [to remain alive] is short, like an evening shadow [that will soon disappear] [SIM]. I will be blown away like a locust/grasshopper is blown [by the wind].
Ako'y yumayaong gaya ng lilim pagka kumikiling: ako'y itinataas at ibinababa ng hangin na parang balang.
24 My knees are weak because I have (fasted/abstained from eating food) very often, and my body has become very thin.
Ang aking mga tuhod ay mahina sa pagaayuno, at ang aking laman ay nagkukulang ng katabaan.
25 The people who accuse me make fun of me; when they see me, they [insult me by] shaking their heads [at me as though I were an evil man].
Ako nama'y naging kadustaan sa kanila: pagka kanilang nakikita ako, kanilang pinagagalawgalaw ang kanilang ulo.
26 Yahweh, my God, help me! Because you faithfully love [me], rescue me!
Tulungan mo ako, Oh Panginoon kong Dios; Oh iligtas mo ako ayon sa iyong kagandahang-loob:
27 [When you save me], cause my enemies to know that you are the one who has done it!
Upang kanilang maalaman na ito'y iyong kamay; na ikaw, Panginoon, ang may gawa.
28 They may curse me, but I ask that you bless me. Cause those who (persecute/cause problems for) me [to be defeated and as a result] to be disgraced/ashamed, and cause me to be glad/happy!
Sumumpa (sila) nguni't magpapala ka: pagka sila'y nagsibangon, sila'y mangapapahiya, nguni't ang iyong lingkod ay magagalak.
29 Cause those who accuse me to be completely disgraced; cause [other people to see] that they are disgraced, as [easily as they see] the clothes that they wear [SIM]!
Manamit ng kasiraang puri ang mga kaaway ko, at matakpan (sila) ng kanilang sariling kahihiyan na parang balabal.
30 But I will thank Yahweh very greatly; I will praise him [when I am] among the crowd [of people who are worshiping him].
Ako'y magpapasalamat ng marami ng aking bibig sa Panginoon; Oo, aking pupurihin siya sa gitna ng karamihan.
31 [I will do that] because he defends [MTY] needy [people like me], and saves us from those who have decided/declared that we must be executed.
Sapagka't siya'y tatayo sa kanan ng mapagkailangan, upang iligtas sa kanilang nagsisihatol ng kaniyang kaluluwa.
