Psalmi 13

1 Dāvida dziesma. Dziedātāju vadonim. Cik ilgi, ak Kungs, Tu mani it visai aizmirsti? Cik ilgi Tu apslēpi Savu vaigu priekš manis?

For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. How long, O LORD? Will You forget me forever? How long will You hide Your face from me?

2 Cik ilgi man būs padomu meklēt savā dvēselē un savā sirdī ikdienas baiļoties? Cik ilgi mans ienaidnieks pār mani paaugstināsies?

How long must I wrestle in my soul, with sorrow in my heart each day? How long will my enemy dominate me?

3 Skaties, paklausi mani, ak Kungs, mans Dievs, apgaismo manas acis, ka es nāvē neaizmiegu,

Consider me and respond, O LORD my God. Give light to my eyes, lest I sleep in death,

4 Ka mans ienaidnieks nesaka: es viņu esmu pārvarējis, un ka mani pretinieki nepriecājās, ka es šaubos.

lest my enemy say, “I have overcome him,” and my foes rejoice when I fall.

5 Bet es cerēju uz Tavu žēlastību, mana sirds līksmojās iekš Tavas pestīšanas.

But I have trusted in Your loving devotion; my heart will rejoice in Your salvation.

6 Es dziedāšu Tam Kungam, ka Viņš man labu dara.

I will sing to the LORD, for He has been good to me.
