Psalmi 52
1 Dāvida mācības dziesma dziedātāju vadonim, Kad Doēgs, tas Edomietis, nāca un Saulam sludināja un tam sacīja: Dāvids ir nācis Aķimeleka namā. Ko tu lielies ar ļaunumu, tu varmāka? Dieva žēlastība pastāv vienmēr.
You people [think that you] are strong and brag about the sins that you have committed, while you plan to harm godly people.
2 Tava mēle meklē postu kā trīts dzenams nazis, tu viltus perētājs.
All during the day you plan to get rid of [others]; what you say [MTY] [injures others] like a sharp razor [SIM], and you are [always] deceiving [others].
3 Tu mīļo ļaunumu vairāk nekā labumu, un melus vairāk nekā taisnību. (Sela)
You like [doing what is] evil more than you like doing what is good, and you like telling lies more than you like telling the truth.
4 Tu labprāt runā posta vārdus, tu viltus mēle.
You who say things [MTY] to deceive people, you like to say (things that hurt people/cruel things)!
5 Tad Dievs arī tevi postīs mūžīgi, Viņš tevi sagrābs un tevi izraus no dzīvokļa, un izsakņos no dzīvības zemes. (Sela)
But God will get rid of you forever; he will grab you and drag you from your home and take you away from this world where people are alive.
6 Un tie taisnie to redzēs un bīsies un smiesies par viņu:
When righteous [people] see that, they will be awestruck, and they will laugh at [what happened to] you, and say,
7 Redzi, tas ir tas vīrs, kas Dievu neturēja par savu spēku, bet paļāvās uz savu lielo bagātību; tas bija varens savā ļaunumā.
“Look [what happened to] the man who would not ask God to protect him; he trusted that his great wealth [would save him]; he trusted in the money that he got by wickedly taking it from others!”
8 Bet es būšu kā zaļš eļļas koks Dieva namā, es paļaujos uz Dieva žēlastību mūžīgi mūžam.
But I am [secure/safe because I worship] in God’s temple; I am like a [strong] green olive tree. I trust in God, who faithfully loves us forever.
9 Es Tev pateikšos mūžam, ka Tu to esi darījis, un gaidīšu uz Tavu Vārdu, jo tas ir labs priekš Taviem svētiem.
God, I will always thank you for the things that you have done. As I stand before godly [people], I will proclaim that you are good (OR, the many good [MTY] [things you have done for us]).
