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.
To the chief Musician, Al-taschith, Michtam of David, when he fled from Saul in the cave. Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me: for my soul trusteth in thee: yes, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge, until [these] calamities are overpast.
2 Es piesaukšu Dievu, to visuaugsto, to stipro Dievu, kas par mani visu izdarīs.
I will cry to God most high; to God that performeth [all things] for me.
3 Viņš sūta no debesīm un palīdz man, un apkauno manu aprijēju. (Sela) Dievs sūta Savu žēlastību un patiesību.
He shall send from heaven, and save me [from] the reproach of him that would swallow me up. (Selah) God shall send forth his mercy 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 lions: [and] I lie [even among] them that are set on fire, [even] the sons of men, whose teeth [are] spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.
5 Parādi, Dievs, Savu augstību pār debesīm, un Savu godību pār visu pasauli!
Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; [let] thy glory [be] above all the earth.
6 Tie izpleš tīklu maniem soļiem, mana dvēsele ir nospiesta; manā priekšā tie bedri rakuši, paši krituši iekšā. (Sela)
They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bowed down: they have digged a pit before me, into the midst of which they have fallen [themselves]. (Selah)
7 Mana sirds ir droša, Dievs, mana sirds ir droša, es dziedāšu un slavēšu.
My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise.
8 Uzmosties, mans gods, uzmostaties, stabules un kokles, es uzmodīšos ar rīta blāzmu.
Awake, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I [myself] will awake early.
9 Es Tev pateikšos, Kungs, starp tiem ļaudīm, es Tevi slavēšu starp tautām.
I will praise thee, O LORD, among the people: I will sing to thee among the nations.
10 Jo Tava žēlastība ir liela līdz debesīm, un Tava patiesība līdz padebešiem.
For thy mercy [is] great to the heavens, and thy truth to the clouds.
11 Parādi, Dievs, Savu augstību pār debesīm, Savu godību pār visu pasauli.
Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: [let] thy glory [be] above all the earth.
