Psalms 69
1 O God, save me, because [I am in great danger]. [It is as though] flood water is up to my neck, [and I am about to drown] [MET].
Untuk pemimpin biduan. Menurut lagu: Bunga bakung. Dari Daud. Selamatkanlah aku, ya Allah, sebab air telah naik sampai ke leherku!
2 I continue to sink in the deep mud, and there is no solid ground for me to stand on. I am in deep water, and flood waters are swirling around me.
Aku tenggelam ke dalam rawa yang dalam, tidak ada tempat bertumpu; aku telah terperosok ke air yang dalam, gelombang pasang menghanyutkan aku.
3 I am exhausted from calling out [for help]; my throat is very dry. Because I have cried so much as I have waited for God [to help me], my eyes are swollen.
Lesu aku karena berseru-seru, kerongkonganku kering; mataku nyeri karena mengharapkan Allahku.
4 Those who hate me when there is no reason to hate me are more than the number of hairs on my head [HYP]! Those who want to get rid of me are strong, and they tell lies about me. They demand that I return to them things that I did not steal!
Orang-orang yang membenci aku tanpa alasan lebih banyak dari pada rambut di kepalaku; terlalu besar jumlah orang-orang yang hendak membinasakan aku, yang memusuhi aku tanpa sebab; aku dipaksa untuk mengembalikan apa yang tidak kurampas.
5 O God, (you see the sins that I have committed/my sins are not hidden from you). You know that I have foolishly [disobeyed your laws].
Ya Allah, Engkau mengetahui kebodohanku, kesalahan-kesalahanku tidak tersembunyi bagi-Mu.
6 O Yahweh God, [you who are the commander] of the armies [of heaven], do not allow the [wrong things that] I [have done] to cause those who trust in you to be disappointed/disillusioned. O God, you whom [we] Israeli people [worship], do not allow me to cause your people to be humiliated.
Janganlah mendapat malu oleh karena aku orang-orang yang menantikan Engkau, ya Tuhan, ALLAH semesta alam! Janganlah kena noda oleh karena aku orang-orang yang mencari Engkau, ya Allah Israel!
7 People have insulted/ridiculed me because [I am devoted to] you. They have thoroughly humiliated [IDM] me.
Sebab oleh karena Engkaulah aku menanggung cela, noda meliputi mukaku.
8 Even my own [older] brothers act as if they do not know me; they treat me like a foreigner.
Aku telah menjadi orang luar bagi saudara-saudaraku, orang asing bagi anak-anak ibuku;
9 [Some people have despised your temple]; but my zeal for [keeping] your temple [holy] is like a fire burning inside me. So [it is as though] those who are insulting you are also insulting me.
sebab cinta untuk rumah-Mu menghanguskan aku, dan kata-kata yang mencela Engkau telah menimpa aku.
10 When I have humbled myself and (fasted/abstained from eating food) [to show my sadness about the disgraceful things that they have done to your temple], they just insult me.
Aku meremukkan diriku dengan berpuasa, tetapi itupun menjadi cela bagiku;
11 When I put on [rough] sackcloth [to show that I am sad], they laugh at [IDM] me.
aku membuat kain kabung menjadi pakaianku, aku menjadi sindiran bagi mereka.
12 Even the elders [of the city] say bad things about me. The drunkards of the city sing [disgusting] songs about me.
Aku menjadi buah bibir orang-orang yang duduk di pintu gerbang, dengan kecapi peminum-peminum menyanyi tentang aku.
13 But Yahweh, I will [continue] praying to you. At the time that you choose, answer me and rescue me because you faithfully love me.
Tetapi aku, aku berdoa kepada-Mu, ya TUHAN, pada waktu Engkau berkenan, ya Allah; demi kasih setia-Mu yang besar jawablah aku dengan pertolongan-Mu yang setia!
14 Do not allow me to sink any more in the mud. Rescue me from those who hate me! Lift me up out of these deep waters!
Lepaskanlah aku dari dalam lumpur, supaya jangan aku tenggelam, biarlah aku dilepaskan dari orang-orang yang membenci aku, dan dari air yang dalam!
15 Do not allow flood waters to swirl around me, do not allow the deep [mud] to swallow me; keep me from sinking into the pit [of death] [MET].
Janganlah gelombang air menghanyutkan aku, atau tubir menelan aku, atau sumur menutup mulutnya di atasku.
16 O Yahweh, answer my prayer and help me because you are good and love me faithfully.
Jawablah aku, ya TUHAN, sebab kasih setia-Mu baik, berpalinglah kepadaku menurut rahmat-Mu yang besar!
17 Do not (hide yourself from/refuse to hear) me; answer me quickly because I am in great trouble.
Janganlah sembunyikan wajah-Mu kepada hamba-Mu, sebab aku tersesak; segeralah menjawab aku!
18 Come near to me and save me; rescue me from my enemies.
Datanglah kepadaku, tebuslah aku, bebaskanlah aku oleh karena musuh-musuhku.
19 You know that I am insulted and that [people cause] me [to feel] ashamed and dishonored; you know [who] all my enemies [are].
Engkau mengenal celaku, maluku dan nodaku; semua lawanku ada di hadapan-Mu.
20 [Their] insults have deeply offended me, and I (feel helpless/am in despair). I searched for [someone who would] pity [me], but there was no one. I wanted someone to encourage/comfort me, but there were none.
Cela itu telah mematahkan hatiku, dan aku putus asa; aku menantikan belas kasihan, tetapi sia-sia, menantikan penghibur-penghibur, tetapi tidak kudapati.
21 [Instead], they gave me food [that tasted like] poison, and when I was thirsty, they gave me sour wine to drink.
Bahkan, mereka memberi aku makan racun, dan pada waktu aku haus, mereka memberi aku minum anggur asam.
22 I hope/desire that the feasts [MTY] [that they enjoy] will (become a snare for/bring trouble to) them, and that [those whom they invite to] the sacrificial feasts will also be trapped.
Biarlah jamuan yang di depan mereka menjadi jerat, dan selamatan mereka menjadi perangkap.
23 I hope/desire that their eyesight will become dim so that they cannot see anything, and that their backs/bodies will become weaker and weaker.
Biarlah mata mereka menjadi gelap, sehingga mereka tidak melihat; buatlah pinggang mereka goyah senantiasa!
24 Show them that you are very angry with them! Because of your great/furious anger, chase after them and catch them.
Tumpahkanlah amarah-Mu ke atas mereka, dan biarlah murka-Mu yang menyala-nyala menimpa mereka.
25 Cause their towns to become abandoned/deserted and that there will be no one left to live in their tents/houses.
Biarlah perkemahan mereka menjadi sunyi, dan biarlah kemah-kemah mereka tidak ada penghuninya.
26 [Do this] because they persecute those whom you have punished, (they talk about the sins of/they want to hurt even more) those whom you have wounded.
Sebab mereka mengejar orang yang Kaupukul, mereka menambah kesakitan orang-orang yang Kautikam.
27 Keep making a record of all their sins, do not acquit/pardon them [for the evil things that they have done].
Tambahkanlah salah kepada salah mereka, dan janganlah sampai Engkau membenarkan mereka!
28 Erase their names [SYN] from the book [containing the names of those who have eternal] life; do not include them in the list of righteous people.
Biarlah mereka dihapuskan dari kitab kehidupan, janganlah mereka tercatat bersama-sama dengan orang-orang yang benar!
29 As for me, I have pain and am suffering. O God, protect me and rescue me.
Tetapi aku ini tertindas dan kesakitan, keselamatan dari pada-Mu, ya Allah, kiranya melindungi aku!
30 When God does that, I will sing as I praise God, and I will honor him by thanking him.
Aku akan memuji-muji nama Allah dengan nyanyian, mengagungkan Dia dengan nyanyian syukur;
31 My doing that will please Yahweh more than [sacrificing] oxen, more than offering him full-grown bulls.
pada pemandangan Allah itu lebih baik dari pada sapi jantan, dari pada lembu jantan yang bertanduk dan berkuku belah.
32 Oppressed/Afflicted people will see [that God has rescued me], and they will be glad. I want all of you who ask God [to help you] to be encouraged.
Lihatlah, hai orang-orang yang rendah hati, dan bersukacitalah; kamu yang mencari Allah, biarlah hatimu hidup kembali!
33 Yahweh listens to those who are needy; He does not ignore/forget those who are oppressed/imprisoned.
Sebab TUHAN mendengarkan orang-orang miskin, dan tidak memandang hina orang-orang-Nya dalam tahanan.
34 I desire that everything will praise God— everything that is in heaven and on earth, and all the creatures that are in the seas.
Biarlah langit dan bumi memuji-muji Dia, lautan dan segala yang bergerak di dalamnya.
35 God will rescue the people of Jerusalem [from their enemies], and he will rebuild the towns that are in Judah. His people will live there and [again] possess the land.
Sebab Allah akan menyelamatkan Sion dan membangun kota-kota Yehuda, supaya orang-orang diam di sana dan memilikinya;
36 The descendants of his people will inherit it, and those who love him will live there [safely].
anak cucu hamba-hamba-Nya akan mewarisinya, dan orang-orang yang mencintai nama-Nya akan diam di situ.
