ಕೀರ್ತನೆಗಳು 64
1 ೧ ಪ್ರಧಾನಗಾಯಕನ ಕೀರ್ತನ ಸಂಗ್ರಹದಿಂದ ಆರಿಸಿಕೊಂಡದ್ದು; ದಾವೀದನ ಕೀರ್ತನೆ. ದೇವರೇ, ನನ್ನ ಸ್ವರವನ್ನು ಕೇಳಿ, ಶತ್ರುಭಯದಿಂದ ನನ್ನ ಜೀವವನ್ನು ರಕ್ಷಿಸು.
TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. Hear, O God, my voice, in my (meditation) You keep my life from the fear of an enemy,
Hide me from the secret counsel of evildoers, From the tumult of workers of iniquity.
Who sharpened their tongue as a sword, They directed their arrow—a bitter word.
To shoot the perfect in secret places, Suddenly they shoot him, and do not fear.
5 ೫ ದುಷ್ಕೃತ್ಯಕ್ಕಾಗಿ ಮನಸ್ಸನ್ನು ದೃಢಪಡಿಸಿಕೊಂಡು ತಮ್ಮೊಳಗೆ, “ರಹಸ್ಯವಾಗಿ ಬಲೆಗಳನ್ನು ಒಡ್ಡೋಣ; ನಮ್ಮನ್ನು ನೋಡುವವರು ಯಾರು?” ಅಂದುಕೊಳ್ಳುತ್ತಾರೆ.
They strengthen an evil thing for themselves, They recount of the hiding of snares, They have said, “Who looks at it?”
6 ೬ ಅವರು, “ಕೇಡನ್ನು ಕಲ್ಪಿಸಿ, ಒಳ್ಳೆಯ ಉಪಾಯವನ್ನು ಕಂಡುಕೊಂಡಿದ್ದೇವೆ” ಅಂದುಕೊಳ್ಳುತ್ತಾರೆ; ಅವರ ಹೃದಯವೂ, ಅಂತರಂಗದ ಆಲೋಚನೆಯೂ ಅಶೋಧ್ಯವಾಗಿವೆ.
They search out perverse things, “We perfected a searching search,” And the inward part of man, and the heart, [are] deep.
And God shoots them [with] an arrow, Their wounds have been sudden,
And they cause him to stumble, Their own tongue [is] against them, Every looker on them flees away.
And all men fear, and declare the work of God, And they have wisely considered His deed.
The righteous rejoice in YHWH, And have trusted in Him, And all the upright of heart boast!
