Psalms 10
1 Lord, why are you so distant? Why do you hide from me in times of trouble?
Kāpēc Tu, Kungs, stāvi no tālienes, paslēpies bēdu laikā?
2 The wicked chase down the poor with impunity. May they be trapped by the evil schemes they themselves invented.
No bezdievīgā lepnības bailes nāk nabagam; lai tie top gūstīti savās blēņās, ko tie izdomājuši.
3 For the wicked boast about what they want to do. They praise the greedy, but treat the Lord with contempt.
Jo bezdievīgais lielās ar savas dvēseles kārību, plēsējs lād, viņš zaimo To Kungu.
4 The wicked are too proud to come to God. In all their thinking they never consider God.
Bezdievīgais savā lielā lepnībā nebēdā par nevienu; visas viņa domas ir: Dieva neesam.
5 What they do always seems to go well. They're unaware of God's judgments. They ridicule all their enemies.
Viņa ceļi allažiņ izdodas, Tava sodība ir tālu no viņa; šņākdams viņš turas pret visiem saviem pretiniekiem.
6 They tell themselves, “Nothing bad is going to happen to me. I'll never be in trouble!”
Viņš saka savā sirdī: es netapšu kustināts, jo ļaunumā es nenākšu līdz radu radiem.
7 Their speech is full of cursing, lies, and threats; their tongues are always ready to spread trouble and cause evil.
Viņa mute pilna lāstu un viltus un varmācības, apakš viņa mēles ir grūtums un bēdas.
8 They hide out in ambush in the villages, ready to kill innocent passers-by. They are always on the lookout for their next victim.
Viņš, sēž paslēpies aiz sētām, viņš nokauj nenoziedzīgo slepenās vietās, viņa acis glūn uz nabagu.
9 They lie in ambush like a lion ready to attack, ready to leap out from their hiding place to seize their victim. They capture the helpless, throwing a net over them.
Viņš glūn slepenībā kā lauva savā alā, viņš glūn sakampt bēdīgo, viņš sakampj bēdīgo, to ievilkdams savā tīklā.
10 Their victims are knocked down, laid low. They fall under the strength of the wicked.
Viņš tup un nometās un uzkrīt ar varu nelaimīgiem.
11 They tell themselves, “God won't notice. He's looking the other way. He won't ever see anything.”
Viņš saka savā sirdī: Dievs ir aizmirsis, Viņš Savu vaigu apslēpis, Viņš neredz ne mūžam.
12 Take a stand, Lord! Raise your hand to strike! Don't forget those who can't defend themselves.
Celies, ak Dievs Kungs, pacel Savu roku, neaizmirsti bēdīgos.
13 Why do the wicked think they can treat God with such contempt? Why do they think that God won't make them accountable?
Kādēļ bezdievīgais Dievu zaimos un sacīs savā sirdī: Tu nemeklēsi?
14 But you do see the trouble and grief they cause. Take it into your own hands. The helpless trust in you; you defend the orphans.
Tu gan redzi, jo Tu uzlūko mokas un sirdēstus, likdams to Savās rokās; nelaimīgais uz Tevi paļaujas, Tu esi bāriņa palīgs.
15 Destroy the power of the wicked, those evil people! Call each of them to account until there are none left!
Salauz bezdievīgā elkoni un meklē ļaunā bezdievību, ka to vairs neatrod.
16 Lord, you are King forever and ever! The nations will vanish from their lands.
Tas Kungs ir ķēniņš mūžīgi mūžam; pagāni ir bojā gājuši no Viņa zemes,
17 Lord, you have heard the longing cries of those who are suffering. You will encourage them, for you will listen to them.
Nabagu ilgošanos Tu klausi, ak Kungs! Tu viņiem sirdi stiprini, Tava auss to liek vērā,
18 You will defend the rights of orphans and the oppressed so that those who are mere human beings here on earth will never terrorize them again.
Tiesu nesdams bāriņam un apspiestam, lai cilvēks, kas no zemes, vairs nedara varas darbus.
