Psalms 141
1 Yahweh, I call out to you; [please] help me quickly! Listen to me when I am calling to you.
Davidin Psalmi. Herra, minä avukseni huudan sinua: riennä minun puoleeni: ota korviis minun ääneni, koska minä sinua huudan.
2 Accept my prayer as though it were incense [being burned as an offering] [SIM] to you. And accept me while I lift up my hands [to pray] to you like you accept sacrifices [that I offer to you each] evening [SIM].
Kelvatkoon minun rukoukseni sinun edessäs niinkuin savu-uhri, minun kätteni ylennys niinkuin ehtoo-uhri.
3 Yahweh, do not allow me to say [MTY] things that are wrong; guard my lips.
Herra, varjele minun suuni ja varjele minun huuleni.
4 Prevent me from wanting to do anything that is wrong, and from joining with wicked men when they want to do evil deeds [DOU]. Do not [even] allow me to share in eating delightful food with them!
Älä kallista minun sydäntäni mihinkään pahuuteen, pitämään jumalatointa menoa pahointekiäin kanssa, etten minä söisi niitä, mitkä heille kelpaavat.
5 It is all right if righteous people strike/hit me or rebuke me because they are trying to act kindly toward me [to teach me to do what is right], but I do not want wicked [people] to [honor me by] anointing my head with [olive] oil; I am always praying [that you will punish them because of] the wicked deeds [that they do].
Vanhurskas lyökään minua ystävällisesti, ja nuhdelkaan minua, se olkoon niinkuin öljy minun pääni päällä; sillä minä vielä rukoilen heidän pahuuttansa vastaan.
6 When their rulers are thrown down from the top of rocky cliffs, people will know that what you, Yahweh, said [about them] is true.
Heidän opettajansa sysättäköön kiveen, niin sitte kuullaan minun opetukseni suloiseksi.
7 Like a log that is split and cut into small pieces [SIM], their shattered bones will be scattered [on the ground] near [other] graves. (Sheol h7585)
Meidän luumme ovat hajoitetut haudan reunalle, niinkuin joku maan repis ja kaivais. (Sheol h7585)
8 But Yahweh God, I [continue to] ask you [to help me]. I ask you to protect me; do not allow me to (die/be killed) [now]!
Sillä sinua, Herra, Herra, minun silmäni katsovat: minä uskallan sinuun, älä minun sieluani hylkää.
9 [It is as though] people have set traps for me; protect me from falling into those traps, [It is as though] they have spread nets to catch me; keep me from being caught in those nets.
Varjele minua siitä paulasta, jonka he asettivat eteeni, ja pahointekiäin ansasta.
10 I desire that wicked [people] will fall into the traps they have set [to catch me] while I escape [from them].
Jumalattomat lankeevat toinen toisensa kanssa omiin verkkoihinsa, siihenasti kuin minä pääsen ohitse.
