Psalmi 142

1 Dāvida pamācība; lūgšana, kad viņš bija alā. Es piesaucu To Kungu ar savu balsi, es lūdzu To Kungu ar savu balsi.

I cry with my voice to Jehovah. With my voice to Jehovah I make supplication.

2 Es izgāžu savu žēlošanos Viņa priekšā, es izstāstu Viņa priekšā savas bēdas.

I pour out my complaint before him. I show my trouble before him.

3 Kad mans gars iztrūcināts, tad Tu zini manu ceļu; tie man liek valgus ceļā, kur es eju.

When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, thou knew my path. In the way in which I walk they have hidden a snare for me.

4 Skaties pa labo roku un redzi, tur nav neviena, kas mani grib pazīt: es nekur nevaru izbēgt, neviens nebēdā par manu dvēseli.

Look on my right hand, and see, for there is no man who knows me. Refuge has failed me. No man cares for my soul.

5 Tevi es piesaucu, Kungs; es saku: Tu esi mana cerība, mana daļa dzīvo zemē.

I cried to thee, O Jehovah. I said, Thou are my refuge, my portion in the land of the living.

6 Ņem vērā manu kliegšanu, jo es esmu ļoti nonīcis; izglāb mani no maniem vajātājiem, jo tie man ir visai vareni.

Attend to my cry, for I am brought very low. Deliver me from my persecutors, for they are stronger than I.

7 Izved manu dvēseli no cietuma, ka es pateicos Tavam vārdam; par mani gavilēs taisnie, kad Tu man labu darīsi.

Bring my soul out of prison that I may give thanks to thy name. The righteous shall encompass me around, for thou will deal bountifully with me.
