Psalms 140
1 To the Overseer. — A Psalm of David. Deliver me, O Jehovah, from an evil man, From one of violence Thou keepest me.
Ispalennak, O Yahweh, kadagiti nadangkes; salaknibannak kadagiti naranggas a tattao.
2 Who have devised evils in the heart, All the day they assemble [for] wars.
Mangpangpanggepda iti dakes kadagiti pusoda; inaldaw a mangirugrugida iti riri.
3 They sharpened their tongue as a serpent, Poison of an adder [is] under their lips. (Selah)
Makasugat dagiti dilada a kas kadagiti uleg; adda kadagiti bibigda ti gita ti karasaen. (Selah)
4 Preserve me, Jehovah, from the hands of the wicked, From one of violence Thou keepest me, Who have devised to overthrow my steps.
Salaknibannak, O Yahweh, kadagiti ima dagiti nadangkes; saluadannak kadagiti naranggas a tattao a mangpangpanggep a mangdangran kaniak.
5 The proud hid a snare for me — and cords, They spread a net by the side of the path, Snares they have set for me. (Selah)
Nangiwayat dagiti natangsit a tattao iti pakaipalab-ogak; nangiwarasda iti iket; nangiwayatda iti pakasiloak. (Selah)
6 I have said to Jehovah, 'My God [art] Thou, Hear, Jehovah, the voice of my supplications.'
Kinunak kenni Yahweh, “Sika ti Diosko; dumngegka kadagiti panagdawdawatko iti asi.”
7 O Jehovah, my Lord, strength of my salvation, Thou hast covered my head in the day of armour.
O Yahweh nga Apok, napigsaka a mangispal; salsalaknibam ti ulok iti aldaw ti gubat.
8 Grant not, O Jehovah, the desires of the wicked, His wicked device bring not forth, They are high. (Selah)
O Yahweh, saanmo a patgan dagiti tarigagay dagiti nadangkes; saanmo nga itulok nga agballigi dagiti panggepda. (Selah)
9 The chief of my surrounders, The perverseness of their lips covereth them.
Natangsit dagiti nakapalawlaw kaniak; bay-am a ti kinadakes dagiti bibigda ti mangdadael kadakuada.
10 They cause to fall on themselves burning coals, Into fire He doth cast them, Into deep pits — they arise not.
Bay-am a matnag dagiti beggang kadakuada; ipurwakmo ida iti apuy, kadagiti mangliwengliweng nga abut, a saanda pulos a makaruk-at.
11 A talkative man is not established in the earth, One of violence — evil hunteth to overflowing.
Saan koma a mapatalged ditoy lubong ti siasinoman a mangibagbaga kadagiti dakes a banbanag kadagiti sabali; anupen koma iti kinadakes ti naranggas a tao tapno dadaelenna isuna.
12 I have known that Jehovah doth execute The judgment of the afflicted, The judgment of the needy.
Ammok nga ikaluya ni Yahweh dagiti mairurrurumen, ken ikalinteganna dagiti agkasapulan.
13 Only — the righteous give thanks to Thy name, The upright do dwell with Thy presence!
Awan duadua a pagyamanan dagiti nalinteg a tattao ti naganmo; agnaed dagiti nalinteg a tattao iti presensiam.
