< Psalmi 41 >
1 Dāvida dziesma. Dziedātāju vadonim. Svētīgs tas, kas nabagu apgādā; to Tas Kungs izglābs ļaunā dienā.
“For the leader of the music. A psalm of David.” Happy is he who hath regard to the poor! The LORD will deliver him in time of trouble.
2 Tas Kungs to pasargās un uzturēs pie dzīvības, Viņš tam liks labi klāties virs zemes un to nenodos viņa ienaidnieku prātam.
The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive; He shall be happy on the earth; Thou wilt not give him up to the will of his enemies!
3 Tas Kungs to atspirdzinās uz neveselības gultas; Tu viņam palīdzēsi guļā no visas viņa sērgas.
The LORD will strengthen him upon the bed of disease; All his bed thou wilt change in his sickness.
4 Es sacīju: ak Kungs, esi man žēlīgs, dziedini manu dvēseli, jo es pret Tevi esmu grēkojis.
I said, O LORD! be merciful to me! Heal me, for I have sinned against thee!
5 Mani ienaidnieki runā ļaunu no manis: kad viņš nomirs un viņa vārds ies bojā?
My enemies speak evil of me: “When will he die, and his name perish?”
6 Un kad tie nāk, mani apraudzīt, tad tie viltu runā; ar savu sirdi tie sameklē niekus, iziet ārā un izplukšķ.
If one come to see me, he speaketh falsehood; His heart gathereth malice; When he goeth abroad, he uttereth it.
7 Visi, kas mani ienīst, musina kopā pret mani, un domā ļaunu pret mani.
All that hate me whisper together against me; Against me do they devise mischief:
8 Blēņu darbu tie apņēmušies savā prātā: kad tas guļ, tad viņš vairs necelsies!
“A deadly disease cleaveth fast unto him; He lieth down, and he shall never arise!”
9 Un pat mans draugs, kam es uzticējos, kas manu maizi ēda, mani min pa kājām.
Yea, my familiar friend in whom I trusted, who did eat of my bread, —He hath lifted up his heel against me.
10 Bet Tu, ak Kungs, esi man žēlīgs, un uzcel mani, tad es tiem to maksāšu!
But do thou, O LORD! have pity upon me; Raise me up, that I may requite them!
11 Pie tam es zinu, ka Tev labs prāts pie manis, ka mans ienaidnieks par mani negavilēs.
By this I know that thou favorest me, Because my enemy doth not triumph over me.
12 Bet Tu mani uzturi manā nenoziedzībā, un mani iecel Savā priekšā mūžīgi.
As for me, thou wilt uphold me in my integrity; Thou wilt set me before thy face for ever!
13 Slavēts lai ir Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs, mūžīgi mūžam! Āmen, Āmen.
[Praised be Jehovah, the God of Israel, From everlasting to everlasting. Amen! Amen!]
