Psalmi 63
1 Dāvida dziesma, kad viņš bija Jūda tuksnesī. Ak Dievs! Tu esi mans stiprais Dievs, Tevi es meklēju pašā rītā, pēc Tevis slāpst manai dvēselei, pēc Tevis ilgojās mana miesa sausā un izkaltušā zemē, kur ūdens nav.
God, you are the God whom I [worship]. I greatly desire to be with you like [SIL] a person in a dry hot desert greatly desires [some cool water].
2 Tā es svētā vietā pēc Tevis esmu skatījies, redzēt Tavu spēku un Tavu godību.
So, I want to see you in your temple; I want to see that you are great and glorious.
3 Jo Tava žēlastība ir labāka nekā dzīvība; manas lūpas Tevi slavē.
Your constantly loving [me] is (worth more/more precious) than [my] life, so I [MTY] will [always] praise you.
4 Tā es Tevi gribētu teikt mūžam, un pacelt savas rokas Tavā Vārdā.
I will praise you all the time that I live; I will lift up my hands to you while I pray.
5 Tad mana dvēsele taptu paēdināta kā ar taukumiem un gardumiem, un mana mute Tevi slavētu ar priecīgām lūpām.
[Knowing you satisfies me more than] [IDM, MET] my eating a very big feast, [so] I will praise you while I sing [MTY] joyful songs.
6 Es Tevi pieminu apguldamies, un uzmozdamies es domāju uz Tevi.
While I lie on my bed, I think about you. I think/meditate about you all during the night,
7 Jo Tu esi mans palīgs, un Tavu spārnu pavēnī es dziedāšu priecīgi.
because you have always helped me, and I sing joyfully knowing that I am protected by you [as a little bird is protected] under [its mother’s] wings [MET].
8 Mana dvēsele Tev pieķeras, Tava labā roka mani tura.
I cling to you; and with your hand/power you protect me.
9 Bet tie, kas manu dvēseli meklē izpostīt, nogrims pašos zemes dziļumos.
But those who are trying to kill me will [die and] descend into the place of the dead;
10 Tos nodos zobena asmenim un tie būs lapsām par barību.
they will be killed in battles [MTY] and their [corpses] will be eaten by jackals/wild dogs.
11 Bet ķēniņš priecāsies iekš Dieva; kas pie tā zvēr, tas lielīsies; jo melkuļu mute taps aizbāzta.
But I, the king [of Israel], will rejoice in what God has done; and all those who revere and trust God will praise him, but he will not allow liars to say anything.
