< Псалтирь 140 >
1 Изми мя, Господи, от человека лукава, от мужа неправедна избави мя: иже помыслиша неправду в сердцы, весь день ополчаху брани:
[For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.] Deliver me, LORD, from the evil man. Preserve me from the violent man;
2 изостриша язык свой яко змиин: яд аспидов под устнами их.
those who devise mischief in their hearts. They continually gather themselves together for war.
3 Сохрани мя, Господи, из руки грешничи, от человек неправедных изми мя, иже помыслиша запяти стопы моя.
They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent. Viper's poison is under their lips. (Selah)
4 Скрыша гордии сеть мне и ужы, препяша сеть ногама моима:
LORD, keep me from the hands of the wicked. Preserve me from the violent men who have determined to trip my feet.
5 при стези соблазны положиша ми.
The proud have hidden a snare for me, they have spread the cords of a net by the path. They have set traps for me. (Selah)
6 Рех Господеви: Бог мой еси Ты, внуши, Господи, глас моления моего.
I said to the LORD, "You are my God." Listen to the cry of my petitions, LORD.
7 Господи, Господи, сило спасения моего, осенил еси над главою моею в день брани.
LORD, the Lord, the strength of my salvation, you have covered my head in the day of battle.
8 Не предаждь мене, Господи, от желания моего грешнику: помыслиша на мя, не остави мене, да не когда вознесутся.
LORD, do not grant the desires of the wicked. Do not let their evil plans succeed, or they will become proud. (Selah)
9 Глава окружения их, труд устен их покрыет я.
As for the head of those who surround me, let the mischief of their own lips cover them.
10 Падут на них углия огненная, низложиши я во страстех, и не постоят.
Let burning coals fall on them. Let them be thrown into the fire, into miry pits, from where they never rise.
11 Муж язычен не исправится на земли: мужа неправедна злая уловят во истление.
An evil speaker won't be established in the earth. Evil will hunt the violent man to overthrow him.
12 Познах, яко сотворит Господь суд нищым и месть убогим.
I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted, and justice for the needy.
13 Обаче праведнии исповедятся имени Твоему, и вселятся правии с лицем Твоим.
Surely the righteous will give thanks to your name. The upright will dwell in your presence.
