Psalmi 37
1 Dāvida dziesma. Neapskaities par bezdievīgiem, neiekarsies par ļauna darītājiem,
[A Psalm] of David. Fret not yourself because of evil-doers, neither be envious of them that do iniquity.
2 Jo tā kā zāle tie drīz top nocirsti, un savītīs kā zaļa zāle.
For they shall soon be withered as the grass, and shall soon fall away as the green herbs.
3 Cerē uz To Kungu un dari labu, paliec savā zemē un uzturies ar uzticību.
Hope in the Lord, and do good; and dwell on the land, and you shall be fed with the wealth of it.
4 Priecājies iekš Tā Kunga, tad Viņš tev dos tavas sirds lūgšanas.
Delight [yourself] in the Lord; and he shall grant you the requests of your heart.
5 Pavēli Tam Kungam savu ceļu un cerē uz Viņu, tad Viņš gan darīs.
Disclose your way to the Lord, and hope in him; and he shall bring [it] to pass.
6 Viņš liks aust tavai taisnībai kā gaismai un tavai tiesai kā dienas spožumam.
And he shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, and your judgment as the noon-day.
7 Ciet klusu Tam Kungam un gaidi uz Viņu, neapskaities par to, kam ceļš labi izdodas, par vīru, kas dodas uz blēdīgiem padomiem.
Submit yourself to the Lord, and supplicate him: fret not yourself because of him that prospers in his way, at the man that does unlawful deeds.
8 Atstājies no dusmības un mities no bardzības, nesaskaities, ka tu ļauna nedari.
ease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not yourself so as to do evil.
9 Jo ļaunie taps izdeldēti; bet kas uz To Kungu gaida, tie zemi iemantos.
For evil-doers shall be destroyed: but they that wait on the Lord, they shall inherit the land.
10 Mazs brīdis vēl, un bezdievīgā vairs nav; un kad Tu raudzīsi pēc viņa vietas, tad tā vairs nav.
And yet a little while, and the sinner shall not be, and you shall seek for his place, and shall not find [it].
11 Bet lēnprātīgie iemantos zemi un priecāsies lielā mierā.
But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight [themselves] in the abundance of peace.
12 Bezdievīgais glūn uz taisno un sakož savus zobus pret viņu.
The sinner will watch for the righteous, and gnash his teeth upon him.
13 Bet Tas Kungs par viņu smejas, jo tas redz, ka viņa diena nāks.
But the Lord shall laugh at him: for he foresees that his day will come.
14 Bezdievīgie izvelk zobenu un uzvelk savu stopu, gāzt bēdīgo un nabagu un nokaut tos, kas uz taisniem ceļiem.
Sinners have drawn their swords, they have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy one, [and] to kill the upright in heart.
15 Bet viņu zobens ies viņu pašu sirdī, un viņu stopi taps salauzti.
Let their sword enter into their [own] heart, and their bows be broken.
16 Tas mazums, kas taisnam, ir labāks, nekā tā bagātība, kas daudz bezdievīgiem.
A little is better to the righteous than abundant wealth of sinners.
17 Jo bezdievīgiem elkonis taps salauzts, bet Tas Kungs uztur taisnos.
For the arms of sinners shall be broken; but the Lord supports the righteous.
18 Tas Kungs zina sirds skaidro dienas, un viņu manta paliks mūžīgi.
The Lord knows the ways of the perfect; and their inheritance shall be for ever.
19 Bēdu laikā tie netaps kaunā, un bada laikā tie taps paēdināti.
They shall not be ashamed in an evil time; and in days of famine they shall be satisfied.
20 Jo bezdievīgie ies bojā, un Tā Kunga ienaidnieki kā lauku jaukums iznīks, tie iznīks kā dūmi.
For the sinners shall perish; and the enemies of the Lord at the moment of their being honored and exalted have utterly vanished like smoke.
21 Bezdievīgais aizņem uz parādu un neatdod, bet taisnais ir žēlīgs un devīgs.
The sinner borrows, and will not pay again: but the righteous has compassion, and gives.
22 Jo Tā Kunga svētītie iemantos zemi, bet Viņa nolādētie taps izdeldēti.
For they that bless him shall inherit the earth; and they that curse him shall be utterly destroyed.
23 No Tā Kunga būs stiprināti tāda vīra soļi, un ved tādu, kura ceļš viņam patīk.
The steps of a man are rightly ordered by the Lord: and he will take pleasure in his way.
24 Ja viņš krīt, tad nepaliek guļam, jo Tas Kungs viņu tur pie rokas.
When he falls, he shall not be ruined: for the Lord supports his hand.
25 Es esmu jauns bijis un arī vecs palicis, bet es neesmu redzējis taisno atstātu, nedz viņa dzimumu meklējam maizi.
I was [once] young, indeed I am now old; yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed seeking bread.
26 Vienmēr viņš apžēlojās un aizdod, un viņa dzimums ir par svētību.
He is merciful, and lends continually; and his seed shall be blessed.
27 Atstājies no ļauna un dari labu, tad tu paliksi mūžīgi.
Turn aside from evil, and do good; and dwell for ever.
28 Jo Tas Kungs mīl tiesu un neatstās Savus svētos; tie top mūžīgi pasargāti, bet bezdievīgo dzimums top izdeldēts.
For the Lord loves judgment, and will not forsake his saints; they shall be preserved for ever: the blameless shall be avenged, but the seed of the ungodly shall be utterly destroyed.
29 Taisnie iemantos zemi, un dzīvos iekš tās mūžam.
But the righteous shall inherit the earth, and dwell upon it for ever.
30 Taisnā mute izteic gudrību, un viņa mēle runā tiesu.
The mouth of the righteous will meditate wisdom, and his tongue will speak of judgment.
31 Dieva bauslība ir viņa sirdī, viņa soļi nestraipelēs.
The law of his God is in his heart; and his steps shall not slide.
32 Bezdievīgais glūn uz taisno un meklē viņu nokaut.
The sinner watches the righteous, and seeks to kill him.
33 Bet Tas Kungs to nepamet viņa rokā, un to nepazudina, kad to tiesā.
But the Lord will not leave him in his hands, nor by any means condemn him when he is judged.
34 Gaidi uz To Kungu un sargi Viņa ceļu, tad Viņš tevi paaugstinās, ka tu zemi iemanto; tu redzēsi, ka bezdievīgie taps izdeldēti.
Wait on the Lord, and keep his way, and he shall exalt you to inherit the land: when the wicked are destroyed, you shall see [it].
35 Es esmu redzējis vienu bezdievīgu, tas darīja varas darbus un zaļoja kā paša audzis koks.
I saw the ungodly very highly exalting himself, and lifting himself up like the cedars of Libanus.
36 Bet tas iznīka, un redzi, tā nebija vairs; es pēc viņa vaicāju bet viņš netapa atrasts.
Yet I passed by, and behold! he was not: and I sought him, but his place was not found.
37 Ņem vērā sirds skaidro un uzlūko taisno, jo tādam vīram beidzot labi klāsies.
Maintain innocence, and behold uprightness: for there is a remnant to the peaceful man.
38 Bet pārkāpēji kopā taps samaitāti, bezdievīgie taps beidzot izdeldēti.
But the transgressors shall be utterly destroyed together: the remnants of the ungodly shall be utterly destroyed.
39 Bet taisno palīdzība ir no Tā Kunga; Tas tiem ir par stiprumu bēdu laikā.
But the salvation of the righteous is of the Lord; and he is their defender in the time of affliction.
40 Un Tas Kungs tiem palīdzēs un tos izglābs, Viņš tos izglābs no bezdievīgiem, un tos izpestīs, jo tie paļaujas uz Viņu.
And the Lord shall help them, and deliver them: and he shall rescue them from sinners, and save them, because they have hoped in him.
