Psalms 55
1 God, listen to my prayer, and do not turn away from me while I am pleading with you.
Inclina ó Deus os teus ouvidos à minha oração, e não te escondas da minha súplica.
2 Listen to me, and answer me, because I am overwhelmed by [all] my troubles.
Atende-me, e ouve-me: lamento na minha queixa, e faço ruído,
3 My enemies cause me to be terrified; wicked people oppress me. They cause me to have great troubles; they are angry with me, and they hate me.
Pelo clamor do inimigo e por causa da opressão do ímpio: pois lançou sobre mim a iniquidade, e com furor me aborrecem.
4 I am terrified, and I am very much afraid that I will die.
O meu coração está dolorido dentro de mim, e terrores da morte cairam sobre mim.
5 I am very fearful and I tremble/shake, and I am completely terrified.
Temor e tremor vieram sobre mim; e o horror me cobriu.
6 I said, “I wish that I had wings like a dove! If I had wings, I would fly away and find a place to rest.
Pelo que disse: Oh! quem me dera asas como de pomba! porque então voaria, e estaria em descanço.
7 I would fly far away and live in the desert.
Eis que fugiria para longe, e pernoitaria no deserto (Selah)
8 I would quickly find a shelter from [my enemies] [who are like] [MET] a strong wind and rainstorm.”
Apressar-me-ia a escapar da fúria do vento e da tempestade.
9 Lord, confuse my enemies, and cause their plans to fail, because I see them acting violently and causing strife in the city [of Jerusalem].
Despedaça, Senhor, e divide as suas línguas, pois tenho visto violência e contenda na cidade.
10 During [each] day and night they march around on top of its walls, committing crimes and causing trouble.
De dia e de noite a cercam sobre os seus muros; iniquidade e malícia estão no meio dela.
11 They destroy [things] everywhere. They oppress and defraud [people] in the (marketplaces/public squares).
Maldade há dentro dela: astúcia e engano não se apartam das suas ruas.
12 If it were an enemy who was making fun of me, I could endure it. If it were someone who hates me, who despises me, I could hide from him.
Pois não era um inimigo que me afrontava: então eu o houvera suportado: nem era o que me aborrecia que se engrandecia contra mim, porque dele me teria escondido.
13 But it is someone who is just like me, my companion, someone who was my friend [who is doing this to me].
Mas eras tu, homem meu igual, meu guia e meu intimo amigo.
14 We previously had many good talks together; we walked around together in God’s temple.
Consultávamos juntos suavemente, e andavamos em companhia na casa de Deus.
15 I desire/hope that my enemies will die suddenly; while they are still young, cause them to go down to the place where the dead people are. They they think evil things. (Sheol h7585)
A morte os assalte, e vivos desçam ao inferno; porque há maldade nas suas habitações e no meio deles. (Sheol h7585)
16 But I [will] ask Yahweh, [my] God, to help me, and he will save me.
Porém eu invocarei a Deus, e o Senhor me salvará.
17 [Each] morning and [each] noontime and [each] evening I tell him what I am concerned about, and I moan, and he hears my voice.
De tarde e de manhã e ao meio dia orarei; e clamarei, e ele ouvirá a minha voz.
18 I have [very] many enemies, but he will rescue me and bring me back safely from the battles that I fight.
Livrou em paz a minha alma da peleja que havia contra mim; pois havia muitos comigo.
19 God is the one who has ruled everything forever, and he will listen to me. He will cause my enemies to be [defeated and] disgraced, because they do not change their evil behavior and they do not revere God.
Deus ouvirá, e os afligirá, aquele que preside desde a antiguidade (Selah) porque não há neles nenhuma mudança, e portanto não temem a Deus
20 My companion, [whom I mentioned previously], betrayed his friends and broke the agreement that he made with them.
Ele pôs as suas mãos naqueles que tem paz com ele: quebrou a sua aliança.
21 What he said was [easy to listen to, like] butter [is easy to swallow] [MET], but in his inner being he hated people; his words were [soothing] like [olive] oil, [but they hurt people like] sharp swords do [MET].
As palavras da sua boca eram mais macias do que a manteiga, mas havia guerra no seu coração: as suas palavras eram mais brandas do que o azeite: contudo, eram espadas nuas.
22 Put your troubles in Yahweh’s hands, and he will take care of you; he will never allow righteous [people] to experience disasters.
Lança a tua carga sobre o Senhor, e ele te susterá: não permitirá nunca que o justo seja abalado.
23 God, you will cause murderers [MTY] and liars to die before they have lived half as long as they expect to live; but [as for me], I will trust in you.
Mas tu, ó Deus, os farás descer ao poço da perdição; homens de sangue e de fraude não viverão metade dos seus dias; mas eu em ti confiarei.
