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 end, a Psalm of David. How long, O Lord, will you forget me? for ever? how long will you turn away 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 shall I take counsel in my soul, [having] sorrows in my heart daily? how long shall my enemy be exalted over me?

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

Look on me, listen to me, O Lord my God: lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep in death;

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

lest at any time mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him: my persecutors will exult if ever I should be moved.

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

But I have hoped in your mercy; my heart shall exult in your salvation.

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

I will sing to the Lord who has dealt bountifully with me, and I will sing psalms to the name of the Lord most high.
