Псалмул 12

1 Вино ын ажутор, Доамне, кэч се дук оамений евлавиошь, пер крединчоший динтре фиий оаменилор!

Yahweh, help us! [It seems that] people who are loyal to you have all vanished.

2 Оамений ышь спун минчунь уний алтора, пе бузе ау лукрурь лингушитоаре, ворбеск ку инимэ префэкутэ.

Everyone tells lies to other people; they deceive others by (flattering them/saying good things about them that they know are not true).

3 Нимичяскэ Домнул тоате бузеле лингушитоаре, лимба каре ворбеште ку труфие,

Yahweh, we wish that you would cut off their tongues so that they cannot continue to boast.

4 пе чей че зик: „Сунтем тарь ку лимба ноастрэ, кэч бузеле ноастре сунт ку ной. Чине ар путя сэ фие стэпын песте ной?”

They say, “By telling lies we will get what we want; we control what we say [MTY], so no one can tell us what we should not do!”

5 „Пентру кэ чей ненорочиць сунт асуприць ши пентру кэ сэрачий ӂем, акум”, зиче Домнул, „Мэ скол ши адук мынтуире челор обиждуиць.”

But Yahweh replies, “I have seen the violent things that they have done to helpless people; and I have heard those people groaning, so I will arise and rescue the people who are wanting me to help them.”

6 Кувинтеле Домнулуй сунт кувинте курате, ун арӂинт лэмурит ын куптор де пэмынт ши курэцит де шапте орь.

Yahweh, you always do what you have promised to do; what you have promised is [as precious and pure as] silver that has been heated seven times in a furnace [to get rid of all the] impure material.

7 Ту, Доамне, ый вей пэзи ши-й вей апэра де нямул ачеста пе вечие.

Wicked people strut around [proudly], and people praise them for doing vile/wicked deeds, but Yahweh, [we know that] you will protect/rescue us from those wicked people.

8 Претутиндень мишунэ чей рэй, кынд домнеште тикэлошия принтре фиий оаменилор.
