< Psalmi 64 >
1 Dāvida dziesma. Dziedātāju vadonim. Klausi, ak Dievs, manu balsi, kad es žēlojos; pasargi manu dzīvību no ienaidnieku briesmām.
“For the leader of the music. A psalm of David.” Hear my voice, O God! when I pray! Preserve my life from the terrors of the enemy!
2 Apslēp mani no ļaunu ļaužu padomiem, no ļaundarītāju trakošanas.
Hide me from the assembly of the wicked, From the brawling crowd of evil-doers!
3 Tie savas mēles trin kā zobenu, un uzvelk savas bultas, savus rūgtos vārdus,
For like a sword they sharpen their tongues, Like arrows they aim their poisoned words,
4 Šaut slepeni nenoziedzīgam; tie šauj viņam piepeši un nebīstas.
To shoot in secret at the upright; Suddenly do they shoot at him without fear.
5 Tie iedrošinājās paši ļaunā padomā, tie runā, slepeni likt valgus, un saka: kas to redzēs?
They prepare themselves for an evil deed; They commune of laying secret snares: “Who,” say they, “will see them?”
6 Tie domā uz visādu blēdību, tiem gatavs ir viņu gudrais padoms, prātu un sirdi nevienam nevar izdibināt.
They meditate crimes: “We have finished,” say they, “our plans!” The heart and bosom of every one of them are deep.
7 Bet Dievs ar bultu tos šaus piepeši, ka tiem gan sāpēs.
But God will shoot an arrow at them; Suddenly shall they be wounded.
8 Caur savu pašu mēli tie taps apgāzti; ikkurš, kas uz tiem skatās, bēgs.
Thus their own tongues shall bring them down; All who see them will flee away.
9 Un visi cilvēki bīsies un sacīs: to Dievs ir darījis, un sapratīs, ka tas ir Viņa darbs.
Then will all men stand in awe, And declare what God hath done, And attentively consider his work.
10 Tas taisnais priecāsies iekš Tā Kunga, un paļausies uz Viņu, un visi sirdsskaidrie teiktin teiksies.
The righteous shall rejoice, and trust in the LORD; All the upright in heart shall glory.
