Psalmi 40
1 Dāvida dziesma. Dziedātāju vadonim. Es gaidu gaidīdams uz To Kungu, Viņš griežas pie manis un paklausa manu kliegšanu.
For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. I waited patiently for the LORD. He turned to me, and heard my cry.
2 Jo Viņš mani izvilka no briesmīgas bedres un no dubļainām dūņām un cēla manas kājas uz akmens kalnu un stiprināja manus soļus.
He brought me up also out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay. He set my feet on a rock, and gave me a firm place to stand.
3 Un ir licis manā mutē jaunu dziesmu, teikšanas dziesmu mūsu Dievam; daudzi to redzēs un bīsies un cerēs uz To Kungu.
He has put a new song in my mouth, even praise to our God. Many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.
4 Svētīgs tas vīrs, kas savu cerību liek uz To Kungu, un negriežās pie tiem lepniem un pie tiem, kas ar meliem tinās.
Blessed is the man who makes the LORD his trust, and doesn’t respect the proud, nor such as turn away to lies.
5 Kungs, mans Dievs, lieli ir Tavi brīnumi, ko Tu mums parādi, un Tavi padomi; nekas Tev nav līdzinājams. Es tos gribu pasludināt un izteikt, tie nav izskaitāmi.
Many, LORD, my God, are the wonderful works which you have done, and your thoughts which are toward us. They can’t be declared back to you. If I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be counted.
6 Upuri un ēdami upuri Tev nepatīk, ausis Tu man esi atvēris; dedzināmos upurus un grēku upurus Tu neprasi.
Sacrifice and offering you didn’t desire. You have opened my ears. You have not required burnt offering and sin offering.
7 Tad es sacīju: Redzi, es nāku, grāmatā stāv par mani rakstīts.
Then I said, “Behold, I have come. It is written about me in the book in the scroll.
8 Man ir prieks, darīt Tavu prātu, mans Dievs, un Tava bauslība ir manā sirds dziļumā.
I delight to do your will, my God. Yes, your law is within my heart.”
9 Es sludināšu taisnību lielā draudzē; redzi, savas lūpas es neaizdarīšu; Kungs, Tu to zini.
I have proclaimed glad news of righteousness in the great assembly. Behold, I will not seal my lips, LORD, you know.
10 Tavu taisnību es neslēpju savā sirdī, no Tavas patiesības un pestīšanas es runāju, Tavu žēlastību un uzticību es neslēpju lielā draudzē.
I have not hidden your righteousness within my heart. I have declared your faithfulness and your salvation. I have not concealed your loving kindness and your truth from the great assembly.
11 Tu, ak Kungs, nenovērs Savu apžēlošanu no manis; lai Tava žēlastība un patiesība vienmēr mani pasargā!
Don’t withhold your tender mercies from me, LORD. Let your loving kindness and your truth continually preserve me.
12 Jo ap mani ir apmetušās bēdas, ko nevar skaitīt, mani noziegumi mani sagrābuši, ka nevaru redzēt; viņu ir vairāk, nekā matu uz manas galvas, un mana sirds mani atstājusi.
For innumerable evils have surrounded me. My iniquities have overtaken me, so that I am not able to look up. They are more than the hairs of my head. My heart has failed me.
13 Lai tev patīk, Kungs, mani izglābt, steidzies, ak Kungs, man palīgā!
Be pleased, LORD, to deliver me. Hurry to help me, LORD.
14 Lai top kaunā un kopā paliek par apsmieklu, kas manu dvēseli meklē, to samaitāt; lai top dzīti atpakaļ un paliek kaunā, kas par manu nelaimi priecājās!
Let them be disappointed and confounded together who seek after my soul to destroy it. Let them be turned backward and brought to dishonor who delight in my hurt.
15 Lai savas bezkaunības dēļ tie iztrūcinājās, kas no manis saka: tā, tā.
Let them be desolate by reason of their shame that tell me, “Aha! Aha!”
16 Lai priecājās un līksmojās iekš Tevis visi, kas Tevi meklē, un lai tie, kas Tavu pestīšanu mīļo, allažiņ saka: Tas Kungs ir augsti teicams.
Let all those who seek you rejoice and be glad in you. Let such as love your salvation say continually, “Let the LORD be exalted!”
17 Gan es esmu bēdīgs un nabags, bet Tas Kungs par mani gādā. Tu esi mans palīgs un mans glābējs; ak, mans Dievs, nekavējies!
But I am poor and needy. May the Lord think about me. You are my help and my deliverer. Don’t delay, my God.
