Otra Samuela 22
1 Un Dāvids runāja Tā Kunga priekšā šīs dziesmas vārdus tai dienā, kad Tas Kungs viņu bija atpestījis no visu viņa ienaidnieku rokas un no Saula rokas; un viņš sacīja:
After Yahweh had rescued David from Saul and his other enemies, David sang a song to Yahweh.
2 Tas Kungs ir mans akmens kalns un mana pils un mans glābējs.
[This is what] he sang: Yahweh, you are like a [huge overhanging] rock [under which I can hide] [MET]; you are like my fortress, and you rescue me.
3 Dievs ir mans patvērums, uz ko es paļaujos, manas priekšturamās bruņas un manas pestīšanas rags, mans augstais palīgs, un mana glābšana, mans Pestītājs, kas mani no varas darba atpestī.
Yahweh, you protect me; you are like a shield; you are the powerful one [MET] who saves me; you are like a place where I (find refuge/am safe). You save me from those who act violently toward me.
4 Es piesaukšu To Kungu, kas teicams, tad es tapšu atpestīts no saviem ienaidniekiem.
I call out to you, Yahweh; you deserve to be praised, and you rescue me from my enemies.
5 Jo nāves viļņi mani apņēma un posta upes mani izbiedēja,
“almost died [PRS]; it was like [MET] a huge wave had crashed over me, and almost destroyed me like a flood.
I thought that I would die; it was as though death wrapped ropes around me; it was as though I was in a trap where I would surely die. [PRS, MET] (Sheol h7585)
7 Savās bēdās es piesaucu To Kungu, es piesaucu savu Dievu; tad Viņš klausīja manu balsi no Sava nama, un mana brēkšana nāca Viņa ausīs.
But when I was (very distressed/in great trouble), I called out to you, Yahweh; I cried out to you, my God. And from your temple you heard me; you listened when I called to you to help me.
8 Zeme tapa kustināta un drebēja, un debesu stiprumi kustējās un trīcēja, kad Viņš apskaitās.
“Then [it was as though] the earth quaked and shook; [it was as though] the foundations that ([held up/supported]) the sky trembled, because you were angry.
9 Dūmi uzkāpa no Viņa nāsīm un rijoša uguns no Viņa mutes, zibeņi no Viņa iedegās.
[It was as though] smoke poured out of your nostrils and burning coals and fire that burns everything came out of your mouth.
10 Viņš nolaida debesis un nokāpa, un tumsa bija apakš Viņa kājām.
You tore open the sky and came down; there was a thick dark [cloud] under your feet.
11 Un Viņš brauca uz ķeruba un skrēja, un parādījās uz vēja spārniem.
You rode [through the sky] on a winged creature; the wind enabled you to travel [swiftly] [MET], like a bird.
12 Viņš lika tumsu ap Sevi par telti, un melnus ūdeņus un biezus mākoņus.
The darkness surrounded you, like a blanket; thick clouds that were full of water also surrounded you.
13 No spožuma Viņa priekšā iedegās ugunīgi zibeņi.
Out of the lightning in front of you fire from burning coals flamed.
14 Tas Kungs lika pērkoniem rībēt no debesīm, un tas Visuaugstais pacēla Savu balsi.
Then, Yahweh, you spoke like thunder from the sky; it was your voice, God, you who are greater than all other gods, that was heard.
15 Un Viņš meta bultas un tos izklīdināja, Viņš meta zibeņus un tos iztrūcināja.
When you sent flashes of lightning, [it was as though] [MET] you shot your arrows and scattered your enemies.
16 Jūras dibeni rādījās, zemes pamati tapa atklāti no Tā Kunga bāršanas, no Viņa nāšu dvašas pūšanas.
Then the bottom of the ocean was uncovered; the foundations of the world could be seen when you rebuked [your enemies] with a snort from your nostrils.
17 Viņš izstiepa (roku) no augstības un satvēra mani, Viņš mani izvilka no lieliem ūdeņiem.
“Yahweh, you reached down from heaven and lifted me up; you pulled me up from the deep water.
18 Viņš mani atpestīja no mana stiprā ienaidnieka un no maniem nīdētājiem, jo tie bija jo varenāki nekā es.
You rescued me from my strong enemies, from those who hated me; [I could not defeat them because] they were very strong.
19 Tie cēlās pret mani manā bēdu laikā; bet Tas Kungs bija mans patvērums.
They attacked me when I was experiencing troubles/difficulties, but Yahweh, you protected me.
20 Un Viņš mani izveda klajumā, Viņš mani izrāva, jo Viņam bija labs prāts uz mani.
You brought me to a place where I was safe; you rescued me because you were pleased with me.
21 Tas Kungs man atmaksā pēc manas taisnības, Viņš man atlīdzina pēc manu roku šķīstības.
“Yahweh, you rewarded me because I do what is right; you did good things for me because I (was innocent/had not done things that are wrong).
22 Jo es sargāju Tā Kunga ceļus, un neesmu atkāpies no sava Dieva.
Yahweh, I have obeyed your laws; I have not turned away from you, my God.
23 Jo visas Viņa tiesas ir manā priekšā, un Viņa likumus es nelieku nost no sevis.
All of your regulations were in my mind, and I did not turn away from [obeying] all your statutes.
24 Bet es biju bezvainīgs Viņa priekšā un sargājos noziegties.
You know that I have not done anything that is evil; I have kept myself from doing things for which I should be punished.
25 Un Tas Kungs man atlīdzina pēc manas taisnības, pēc manas šķīstības priekš Viņa acīm.
So you have rewarded me in return for my doing what is right, because [you know that] I (am innocent of doing/have not done) wrong things.
26 Pie tiem svētiem Tu rādies svēts, un pie tiem sirdsskaidriem vīriem Tu rādies skaidrs.
“Yahweh, you are faithful/loyal to those who always trust in you; you always do what is good to those whose behavior is always good.
27 Pie tiem šķīstiem Tu rādies šķīsts, un pie tiem pārvērstiem (un pretdabiskiem) Tu pārvērties (un maldini).
You act sincerely toward those whose inner beings are pure, but you are hostile to those who are perverse/wicked.
28 Jo bēdīgus ļaudis Tu atpestī, un Tavas acis ir pret tiem lepniem, tos pazemot.
You rescue those who are humble, but you watch [MTY] those who are proud and humiliate them.
29 Jo Tu Kungs esi mans spīdeklis. Tas Kungs dara manu tumsību gaišu.
Yahweh, you are [like] [MET] a lamp that causes it to become light when I am in the dark.
30 Jo ar Tevi es varu sadauzīt karaspēku, ar savu Dievu es varu lēkt pār mūriem.
With your strength/help I can run through a line of enemy soldiers and I can climb over the wall [that surrounds their city].
31 Tā stiprā Dieva ceļš ir bezvainīgs, Tā Kunga valoda ir šķīsta, Viņš ir par priekšturamām bruņām visiem, kas uz Viņu paļaujas.
“My God whom I worship, everything that you do is perfect; you always do what you promise that you will do. You are like a shield [MET] to all those who request you to protect them.
32 Jo kur ir kāds Dievs, kā vien Tas Kungs? Un kur ir kāds patvērums, kā vien mūsu Dievs?
Yahweh, you are [RHQ] the only one who is God; only you are like a huge rock [MET] [under which we are protected/safe].
33 Tas stiprais Dievs ir mans varenais patvērums, un Viņš vada to taisno pa Savu ceļu.
God, you [whom I worship] are a strong refuge for me; you keep me safe on the roads that I [walk on].
34 Viņš man kājas dara kā stirnām, un mani uzceļ manā augstā vietā.
[When I walk] in the mountains, you enable me to walk safely, without stumbling [MET] like a deer runs.
35 Viņš manas rokas māca karot, ka mans elkonis uzvelk vara stopus.
You teach me [how to fight] in a battle in order that I can shoot arrows well from a very strong bow.
36 Un Tu man dod Savas pestīšanas priekšturamās bruņas, un Tava laipnība mani paaugstina.
[It is as though] [MET] you have given me a shield by which you have saved/rescued me, and you have answered my prayers and caused me to become famous/great.
37 Maniem soļiem Tu esi darījis platu ceļu apakš manis, ka mani krimšļi nav slīdējuši.
You have not allowed [my enemies] to capture me [IDM], and I have not fallen down [during battles].
38 Es dzīšos pakaļ saviem ienaidniekiem, un tos iznīcināšu un negriezīšos atpakaļ, kamēr tos nebūšu izdeldējis.
“pursued my enemies and defeated them; I did not stop [fighting them] until they were all killed.
39 Es tos izdeldēšu un tos satriekšu, ka tie nevarēs celties, tiem jākrīt apakš manām kājām.
I struck them down; I stabbed them with my sword; they fell down at my feet and did not stand up again.
40 Jo Tu mani apjozīsi ar spēku uz karu, Tu nospiedīsi apakš manis, kas pret mani ceļas.
You have given me strength for fighting battles and caused those who were attacking me to fall down, and I trampled on them.
41 Tu maniem ienaidniekiem liksi bēgt manā priekšā un savus nīdētājus es iznīcināšu.
You caused my enemies to turn and run away from me; I destroyed those who hated me.
42 Tie skatās visapkārt, bet glābēja nav, - uz To Kungu, bet Viņš tiem neatbild.
They (looked for/wanted) someone to rescue them, but no one did. They cried out to you, Yahweh, [for help, ] but you did not answer them.
43 Es tos sagrūdīšu kā zemes pīšļus, es tos samīšu un izkaisīšu kā dubļus uz ielām.
I crushed them, and as a result they became like [SIM] tiny particles of dust. I trampled them, and they became like [SIM] mud in the streets.
44 Tu mani izglābi no manu ļaužu ķildām, Tu mani lieci par galvu tautām: ļaudis, ko es nepazinu, man kalpo.
“You rescued me from those who tried to rebel [against me], and you appointed me to rule many nations; people whom I did not know previously are now (under my authority/my slaves).
45 Svešinieku bērni mīlīgi izrādās manā priekšā; kad viņu auss dzird, tad tie man paklausa.
Foreigners humbly bowed down in front of me; as soon as they heard about me, they obeyed me.
46 Svešinieku bērni nonīkst un drebēdami iziet no savām pilīm.
They became afraid, and they came to me, trembling, from the places where they were hiding.
47 Tas Kungs ir dzīvs, un slavēts lai ir mans Patvērums, un augsti slavēts lai ir Dievs, manas pestīšanas Klints,
“Yahweh, you are alive! I praise you! You are like [MET] a [huge overhanging] rock under which I am safe/protected! You are the one who rescues me [MET]. Everyone should exalt/honor/praise you.
48 Tas stiprais Dievs, kas man dod atriebšanu, un tautas nomet apakš manis,
You enable me to conquer my enemies; you cause people of [other] nations to be (under my authority/my slaves).
49 Un kas mani izvada no maniem ienaidniekiem. Un Tu mani paaugstini pār tiem, kas pret mani cēlās, no tiem varas darītājiem Tu mani izglābi.
You delivered me from my enemies; you caused me to be honored more than they were; you rescued me from men who [always] acted violently.
50 Tāpēc es Tevi, Kungs, slavēšu starp tautām un dziedāšu Tavam vārdam.
Because of all that, I exalt you among many people-groups and I sing to praise you.
51 Viņš Savam ķēniņam parāda lielu pestīšanu un dara labu Savam svaidītam Dāvidam un viņa dzimumam mūžīgi.
You enable me, whom you appointed to be king, to powerfully conquer [my enemies]; you faithfully love me, David, and you will love my descendants forever.
