< Psalmi 28 >
1 Dāvida dziesma. Tevi es piesaucu, Kungs, mans patvērums, nestāvi man klusu; ja Tu man klusu stāvēsi, tad es tapšu līdzīgs tiem, kas grimst bedrē.
Yahweh, I call out to you; [you are like an overhanging] rock [under which I can hide]. Do not refuse to answer me, because if you are silent, I will soon be with those who are in their graves.
2 Klausi manas sirds lūgšanas balsi, kad uz Tevi kliedzu, kad savas rokas paceļu pret Tava nama vissvēto vietu.
Listen to me when I call out for you [to help me], when I pray, lifting up my hands as I face your sacred temple.
3 Neaizrauj mani ar tiem bezdievīgiem un ļaundarītājiem, kas no miera runā ar savu tuvāko, bet ļaunums ir viņu sirdī.
Do not drag me away with wicked people, with those who do wicked deeds, with those who pretend [to act] peacefully toward others while in their inner beings, they hate them.
4 Dod tiem pēc tā, ko tie dara, un pēc viņu blēdīgiem darbiem, dod tiem pēc viņu roku darbiem, atmaksā tiem pēc viņu nopelna.
Punish those people in the way that they deserve for what they have done; punish them for their evil deeds [DOU].
5 Jo tie neņem vērā, ko Tas Kungs dara, nedz viņa rokas darbu. Viņš tos sadauzīs un tos neuztaisīs.
Yahweh, they do not pay attention to the [wonderful] things that you have done and that you have created; so get rid of them permanently and do not let them appear again!
6 Slavēts lai ir Tas Kungs, jo Viņš ir klausījis manas sirds lūgšanas balsi.
Praise Yahweh because he has heard me when I called out for him to help me!
7 Tas Kungs ir mans stiprums un manas priekšturamās bruņas; mana sirds paļaujas uz Viņu, un man top palīdzēts; par to mana sirds priecājās, un es Viņam pateikšu ar dziesmām.
Yahweh makes me strong and [protects] me [like a shield] [MET]; I trusted in him, and he helped me. I was glad, and from my inner being I praised him as I sang to him.
8 Tas Kungs tiem ir par stiprumu, Viņš ir Sava svaidītā stiprums un pestīšana.
Yahweh causes us to be strong and protects us; and he saves me, the one he appointed [MTY] to be king.
9 Atpestī Savus ļaudis un svētī Savu īpašumu, un gani tos un paaugstini tos mūžīgi.
Yahweh, save/rescue your people; bless those who belong to you. [Take care of them like] a shepherd [takes care of his sheep] [MET]; take care of them forever.
