Psalmi 7
1 Dāvida dziesma, ko viņš Tam Kungam dziedāja, par Benjaminieti Kušu. Kungs, mans Dievs, uz Tevi es paļaujos, atpestī mani no visiem maniem vajātājiem un izglābi mani,
A Psalm of David, which he sang to the Lord because of the words of Cush, the son of Jemini. O Lord, my God, in you I have hoped. Save me from all those who persecute me, and free me:
2 Ka tas manu dvēseli nelaupa kā lauva, to saplosīdams, tādēļ ka glābēja nav.
lest at any time, like a lion, he might seize my soul, while there is no one to redeem me, nor any who can save.
3 Kungs, mans Dievs, ja to esmu darījis, ja netaisnība ir manās rokās,
O Lord, my God, if there is iniquity in my hands, if I have done this:
4 Ja esmu ļaunu maksājis tam, kas mierīgi ar mani dzīvoja, vai aplaupījis to, kas mani bez vainas apbēdināja,
if I have repaid those who rendered evils to me, may I deservedly fall away empty before my enemies:
5 Tad lai ienaidnieks manu dvēseli vajā un panāk, lai samin manu dzīvību pie zemes un noliek manu godu pīšļos. (Sela)
let the enemy pursue my soul, and take hold of it, and trample my life into the earth, and drag down my glory into the dust. (Pause)
6 Celies, ak Kungs, Savā dusmībā, stājies pretī manu spaidītāju bardzībai, uzmosties manis labad; Tu tiesu turēsi.
Rise up, Lord, in your anger. And be exalted to the borders of my enemies. And rise up, O Lord my God, according to the precept that you commanded,
7 Tautu pulks lai metās ap Tevi, bet Tu pār to atkal pacelies augstībā.
and a congregation of people will surround you. And, because of this, return on high.
8 Tas Kungs nesīs tiesu tām tautām; tiesā mani, Kungs, pēc manas taisnības un manas bezvainības.
The Lord judges the people. Judge me, O Lord, according to my justice and according to my innocence within me.
9 Lai jel beidzās bezdievīgo niknums, bet stiprini to taisno, jo Tu pārbaudi sirdis un īkstis, ak taisnais Dievs!
The wickedness of sinners will be consumed, and you will direct the just: the examiner of hearts and temperaments is God.
10 Manas priekšturamās bruņas ir Dieva rokā, Viņš palīdz tiem sirds taisniem.
Just is my help from the Lord, who saves the upright of heart.
11 Dievs ir taisns soģis un tāds Dievs, kas ikdienas biedina.
God is a just judge, strong and patient. How could he be angry throughout every day?
12 Ja kas negrib atgriezties, tad viņš savu zobenu trinis, savu stopu uzvilcis un sataisījis,
Unless you will be converted, he will brandish his sword. He has extended his bow and made it ready.
13 Un priekš tā nāvīgus ieročus salicis, savas bultas darījis degošas.
And with it, he has prepared instruments of death. He has produced his arrows for those on fire.
14 Redzi, kāds ieņem netaisnību un nesās ar nelaimi, bet dzemdē nieku.
Behold him who has given birth to injustice: he has conceived sorrow and has begotten iniquity.
15 Tas bedri racis un izmetis, bet iekritis tai bedrē, ko taisījis.
He has opened a pit and enlarged it. And he has fallen into the hole that he made.
16 Viņa ļaunums atgriezīsies uz viņa galvu, un viņa varas darbs nometīsies uz viņa galvas virsu.
His sorrow will be turned upon his own head, and his iniquity will descend upon his highest point.
17 Es slavēšu To Kungu Viņa taisnības dēļ, un dziedāšu Tā Kunga, tā Visaugstākā, Vārdam.
I will confess to the Lord according to his justice, and I will sing a psalm to the name of the Lord Most High.
