< Psalms 141 >
1 A psalm of David. Yahweh, I am crying out to you; come quickly to me. Listen to me when I call to you.
Dāvida dziesma. Kungs, Tevi es piesaucu, steidzies pie manis, klausies uz manu balsi, kad es Tevi piesaucu.
2 May my prayer be like incense before you; may my lifted hands be like the evening sacrifice.
Lai mana lūgšana Tavā priekšā top cienīta kā kvēpināmais upuris, manu roku pacelšana kā vakara upuris.
3 Yahweh, place a guard over my mouth; guard the door of my lips.
Kungs, sargi manu muti un pasargi manas lūpas.
4 Do not let my heart desire any evil thing or participate in sinful activities with men who behave wickedly. May I not eat any of their delicacies.
Nedod manai sirdij griezties uz ļaunu, bezdievīgu darbu darīt ar ļaundarītājiem, ka nebaudu no viņu kārumiem.
5 Let a righteous man hit me; it will be a kindness to me. Let him correct me; it will be like oil on my head; may my head not refuse to accept it. But my prayer is always against their wicked deeds.
Lai taisnais mani sit, tā būs žēlastība, un lai viņš mani pārmāca, tā būs eļļa uz manu galvu, tam lai mana galva neliedzās; bet es vienmēr lūdzu pret viņu ļauniem darbiem.
6 Their leaders will be thrown down from the top of cliffs; they will hear that my own words are pleasant.
No akmens kalniem viņu soģi lai top nogāzti; tad dzirdēs manus vārdus, ka tie mīlīgi.
7 They will have to say, “As when one plows and breaks up the ground, so our bones have been scattered at the mouth of Sheol.” (Sheol )
Kā zemi uzplēš un uzar, tā mūsu kauli ir izkaisīti līdz pašam kapam. (Sheol )
8 Surely my eyes are on you, Yahweh, Lord; in you I take refuge; do not leave my soul defenseless.
Bet uz Tevi, Kungs, Dievs, manas acis raugās, uz Tevi paļaujos, neatstum manu dvēseli.
9 Protect me from the snares that they have laid for me, from the traps of evildoers.
Pasargi mani no tā valga, ko tie man ir izmetuši, un no ļauna darītāju slazdiem.
10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets while I escape.
Bezdievīgie kritīs savos tīklos, kamēr es iešu garām.
