Psalms 141

1 A Psalm by David. LORD, I have called on you. Come to me quickly! Listen to my voice when I call to you.

Dāvida dziesma. Kungs, Tevi es piesaucu, steidzies pie manis, klausies uz manu balsi, kad es Tevi piesaucu.

2 Let my prayer be set before you like incense; the lifting up of my hands like the evening sacrifice.

Lai mana lūgšana Tavā priekšā top cienīta kā kvēpināmais upuris, manu roku pacelšana kā vakara upuris.

3 Set a watch, LORD, before my mouth. Keep the door of my lips.

Kungs, sargi manu muti un pasargi manas lūpas.

4 Don’t incline my heart to any evil thing, to practise deeds of wickedness with men who work iniquity. Don’t let me eat of their delicacies.

Nedod manai sirdij griezties uz ļaunu, bezdievīgu darbu darīt ar ļaundarītājiem, ka nebaudu no viņu kārumiem.

5 Let the righteous strike me, it is kindness; let him reprove me, it is like oil on the head; don’t let my head refuse it; Yet my prayer is always against evil 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 judges are thrown down by the sides of the rock. They will hear my words, for they are well spoken.

No akmens kalniem viņu soģi lai top nogāzti; tad dzirdēs manus vārdus, ka tie mīlīgi.

7 “As when one ploughs and breaks up the earth, our bones are scattered at the mouth of Sheol.” (Sheol h7585)

Kā zemi uzplēš un uzar, tā mūsu kauli ir izkaisīti līdz pašam kapam. (Sheol h7585)

8 For my eyes are on you, LORD, the Lord. I take refuge in you. Don’t leave my soul destitute.

Bet uz Tevi, Kungs, Dievs, manas acis raugās, uz Tevi paļaujos, neatstum manu dvēseli.

9 Keep me from the snare which they have laid for me, from the traps of the workers of iniquity.

Pasargi mani no tā valga, ko tie man ir izmetuši, un no ļauna darītāju slazdiem.

10 Let the wicked fall together into their own nets while I pass by.

Bezdievīgie kritīs savos tīklos, kamēr es iešu garām.
