Psalmi 57
1 Dāvida sirds dziesma. Dziedātāju vadonim, pēc: „nesamaitā“; kad tas no Saula bēga alā. Apžēlojies par mani, ak Dievs, apžēlojies par mani, jo uz Tevi cerē mana dvēsele, un apakš Tavu spārnu ēnas es gribu cerēt, kamēr nelaime būs pārgājusi.
For the choirmaster. To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” A Miktam of David, when he fled from Saul into the cave. Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy, for in You my soul takes refuge. In the shadow of Your wings I will take shelter until the danger has passed.
2 Es piesaukšu Dievu, to visuaugsto, to stipro Dievu, kas par mani visu izdarīs.
I cry out to God Most High, to God who fulfills His purpose for me.
3 Viņš sūta no debesīm un palīdz man, un apkauno manu aprijēju. (Sela) Dievs sūta Savu žēlastību un patiesību.
He reaches down from heaven and saves me; He rebukes those who trample me. (Selah) God sends forth His loving devotion and His truth.
4 Mana dvēsele ir starp lauvām; es guļu starp cilvēku bērniem kā starp liesmām; viņu zobi ir šķēpi un bultas, un viņu mēle ass zobens.
My soul is among the lions; I lie down with ravenous beasts— with men whose teeth are spears and arrows, whose tongues are sharp swords.
5 Parādi, Dievs, Savu augstību pār debesīm, un Savu godību pār visu pasauli!
Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; may Your glory cover all the earth.
6 Tie izpleš tīklu maniem soļiem, mana dvēsele ir nospiesta; manā priekšā tie bedri rakuši, paši krituši iekšā. (Sela)
They spread a net for my feet; my soul was despondent. They dug a pit before me, but they themselves have fallen into it!
7 Mana sirds ir droša, Dievs, mana sirds ir droša, es dziedāšu un slavēšu.
My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast. I will sing and make music.
8 Uzmosties, mans gods, uzmostaties, stabules un kokles, es uzmodīšos ar rīta blāzmu.
Awake, my glory! Awake, O harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn.
9 Es Tev pateikšos, Kungs, starp tiem ļaudīm, es Tevi slavēšu starp tautām.
I will praise You, O Lord, among the nations; I will sing Your praises among the peoples.
10 Jo Tava žēlastība ir liela līdz debesīm, un Tava patiesība līdz padebešiem.
For Your loving devotion reaches to the heavens, and Your faithfulness to the clouds.
11 Parādi, Dievs, Savu augstību pār debesīm, Savu godību pār visu pasauli.
Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; may Your glory cover all the earth.
