Psalms 54

1 To the Overseer with stringed instruments. — An instruction, by David, in the coming in of the Ziphim, and they say to Saul, 'Is not David hiding himself with us?' O God, by Thy name save me, and by Thy might judge me.

Dāvida mācības dziesma. Dziedātāju vadonim, uz koklēm. Kad Zifieši nāca un Saulam sacīja: vai Dāvids pie mums nav paslēpies? Ak Dievs atpestī mani caur Savu vārdu un nes man tiesu caur Savu varu.

2 O God, hear my prayer, Give ear to the sayings of my mouth,

Ak Dievs, klausi manu lūgšanu, liec vērā, ko mana mute runā.

3 For strangers have risen up against me And terrible ones have sought my soul, They have not set God before them. (Selah)

Jo svešinieki ceļas pret mani, un briesmīgi ļaudis meklē manu dvēseli; tie netur Dievu priekš savām acīm. (Sela)

4 Lo, God [is] a helper to me, The Lord [is] with those supporting my soul,

Redzi, Dievs man ir par palīgu; Tas Kungs ir tas, kas manu dvēseli uztur.

5 Turn back doth the evil thing to mine enemies, In Thy truth cut them off.

Viņš maksās to ļaunumu maniem nicinātājiem; izdeldē tos pēc Tavas uzticības.

6 With a free will-offering I sacrifice to Thee, I thank Thy name, O Jehovah, for [it is] good,

Tad es Tev upurēšu ar labu prātu, es pateikšos, Kungs, Tavam Vārdam, ka tas ir tik labs.

7 For, from all adversity He delivered me, And on mine enemies hath mine eye looked!

Jo Viņš mani izglābis no visām bēdām, ka mana acs ar prieku uzlūko manus ienaidniekus.
