Psalmi 54

1 Dāvida mācības dziesma. Dziedātāju vadonim, uz koklēm. Kad Zifieši nāca un Saulam sacīja: vai Dāvids pie mums nav paslēpies? Ak Dievs atpestī mani caur Savu vārdu un nes man tiesu caur Savu varu.

Unto the end, In verses, understanding for David. When the men of Ziph had come and said to Saul: Is not David hidden with us? Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me in thy strength.

2 Ak Dievs, klausi manu lūgšanu, liec vērā, ko mana mute runā.

O God, hear my prayer: give ear to the words of my mouth.

3 Jo svešinieki ceļas pret mani, un briesmīgi ļaudis meklē manu dvēseli; tie netur Dievu priekš savām acīm. (Sela)

For strangers have risen up against me; and the mighty have sought after my soul: and they have not set God before their eyes.

4 Redzi, Dievs man ir par palīgu; Tas Kungs ir tas, kas manu dvēseli uztur.

For behold God is my helper: and the Lord is the protector of my soul.

5 Viņš maksās to ļaunumu maniem nicinātājiem; izdeldē tos pēc Tavas uzticības.

Turn back the evils upon my enemies; and cut them off in thy truth.

6 Tad es Tev upurēšu ar labu prātu, es pateikšos, Kungs, Tavam Vārdam, ka tas ir tik labs.

I will freely sacrifice to thee, and will give praise, O God, to thy name: because it is good:

7 Jo Viņš mani izglābis no visām bēdām, ka mana acs ar prieku uzlūko manus ienaidniekus.

For thou hast delivered me out of all trouble: and my eye hath looked down upon my enemies.
