Psalmi 91
1 Kas sēž tā Visuaugstākā patvērumā un mīt tā Visuvarenā ēnā,
Those who live under the protection of God Almighty, will be able to rest [safely] under his care.
2 Tas saka uz To Kungu: mana cerība un mana stipra pils, mans Dievs, uz ko es paļaujos.
I will declare to Yahweh, “You protect me; [you are like] a fort [MET] in which I am safe. You are my God, the one in whom I trust.”
3 Jo Viņš tevi glābj no mednieka valgiem, no kaitīgā mēra.
Yahweh will rescue you from all hidden traps and save you from deadly diseases.
4 Viņš tevi sedz Saviem spārniem, un apakš Viņa spārniem tu esi glābts; Viņa patiesība ir par apsegu un par priekšturamām bruņām,
He will shield/protect you [like a bird shields/protects its chicks] [MET] with/under her wings. You will be safe (in his care/because he takes care of you). His faithfully doing what he has promised is like a shield [MET] that will protect you.
5 Ka tev nav ko bīties no nakts baidekļiem, no bultām, kas dienā skraida,
You will not be afraid of things that happen during the night that could (terrorize you/cause you to be very afraid), or of arrows that [your enemies will shoot at you] during the day.
6 No mēra, kas tumsā lien, no sērgas, kas dienas vidū samaitā.
You will not be afraid of (plagues/widespread sicknesses) that demons cause when they attack people at night, or of other [evil forces] that kill people at midday.
7 Jebšu tūkstoši krīt tev sānis, un desmit tūkstoši pie tavas labās rokas, taču tevi neaizņems.
Even if 1,000 people fall [dead] alongside you, even if 10,000 [people are dying] around you, you will not be harmed.
8 Tiešām, ar savām acīm tu uzlūkosi un redzēsi, kā bezdievīgiem top atmaksāts.
Look and see that (wicked people are being punished/God is punishing wicked people)!
9 Tu, Kungs, esi mans patvērums! To Visuaugstāko tu esi licis par savu stiprumu.
If you allow Yahweh to protect you, if you trust God Almighty to (shelter/take care of) you,
10 Ļaunums tev neuzies, un pie tava dzīvokļa mokas nepiestāsies.
nothing evil will happen to you; no plague will come near your house,
11 Jo Viņš Saviem eņģeļiem par tevi pavēlēs, tevi pasargāt uz visiem taviem ceļiem.
because Yahweh will command his angels to protect you wherever you go.
12 Tie tevi uz rokām nesīs, ka tu savu kāju pie akmens nepiedauzīsi.
They will hold you up with their hands, with the result that you will not hurt your foot on a big stone.
13 Pār lauvām un odzēm tu kāpsi un samīsi jaunos lauvas un pūķus.
You will be [kept safe from being harmed by your enemies] [MET]; [it will be as though] you are stepping on lions and poisonous snakes [without them harming you!]
14 „Viņš tveras pie Manis, un Es viņu izglābšu; Es viņu paaugstināšu, jo viņš pazīst Manu vārdu.
[Yahweh says], “I will rescue those who love me, I will protect them because they (acknowledge that I am Yahweh/know me).
15 Viņš Mani piesauc, un Es viņu paklausīšu. Es viņam klāt esmu bēdās, Es viņu gribu izraut un viņu pagodināt.
When they call out to me, I will answer them. I will help them when they are experiencing trouble; I will rescue them and honor them.
16 Ar ilgu dzīvošanu Es viņu gribu paēdināt un viņam parādīt Savu pestīšanu“.
I will reward them by enabling them to live a long time, and I will save them.”
