Psalmi 27
1 Dāvida dziesma. Tas Kungs ir mans gaišums un mana pestīšana, no kā man bīties? Tas Kungs ir manas dzīvības stiprums, no kā man baiļoties?
A psalm of David. The Lord is my light and my saviour; whom then should I fear? The Lord protects my life; whom then should I dread?
2 Kad ļaunie, mani pretinieki un ienaidnieki, uz mani laužas manu miesu ēst, tad tiem būs piedauzīties un krist.
When the wicked drew near to assail me and eat up my flesh, it was those who distressed and opposed me who stumbled and fell.
3 Kad arī pulki pret mani apmetās, taču mana sirds nebīstas; kad karš pret mani ceļas, tad es paļaujos uz Viņu.
Though against me a host should encamp, yet my heart would be fearless: though battle should rise up against me, still would I be trustful.
4 Vienu lietu es no Tā Kunga lūdzos, to es meklēju tikuši(mana sirds vēlēšanās), ka es varu dzīvot Tā Kunga namā visu savu mūžu, raudzīt Tā Kunga laipnību un pielūgt Viņa svētā vietā.
One thing have I asked of the Lord, and that do I long for – To live in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze on the grace of the Lord and inquire in his temple.
5 Jo ļaunā dienā Viņš mani paslēpj Savā dzīvoklī Viņš mani sargā Savas telts ēnā, Viņš mani paaugstina uz akmens kalnu.
For he will hide me in his shelter in the day of misfortune. In his sheltering tent he hides me: he lifts me up on a rock.
6 Un nu mana galva taps paaugstināta pār maniem ienaidniekiem, kas ir ap mani; un es upurēšu Viņa teltī teikšanas upurus, es dziedāšu un slavēšu To Kungu.
And now that my head he has lifted above my encircling foes, I will march round the altar and sacrifice, shouting with joy, in his tent, making music and song to the Lord.
7 Klausi, ak Kungs, manu balsi; kad es saucu, tad žēlo mani un atbildi man.
Hear, O Lord, my loud cry, and graciously answer me.
8 Mana sirds saka uz tevi: „Meklējiet Manu vaigu!“Es meklēju, Kungs, Tavu vaigu.
My heart has said to you, ‘Your face, O Lord, I seek.’
9 Neapslēp Savu vaigu priekš manis, neatstum Savu kalpu dusmībā, - Tu esi mans palīgs; neatmet mani un neatstāj mani, ak Dievs, mans Pestītājs.
Hide not your face from me, reject not your servant in anger: for you have been my help. Abandon me not, nor forsake me, O God of my help:
10 Jo mans tēvs un mana māte mani atstājuši, bet Tas Kungs mani uzņem.
for father and mother have left me; but the Lord will take me up.
11 Māci man, Kungs, Tavu ceļu, un vadi mani uz īstenu ceļu, manu ienaidnieku dēļ.
Teach me your way, O Lord: lead me in an even path, because of my enemies.
12 Nenodod mani manu pretinieku prātam, jo viltīgi liecinieki ceļas pret mani un runā netaisnību.
Give me not up, O Lord, unto the rage of my foes; for against me have risen false witnesses, breathing out cruelty.
13 Ja es nebūtu ticējis, ka es redzēšu Tā Kunga labumu dzīvības zemē, (tad es būtu bojā gājis).
Firm is the faith I cherish, that I, in the land of the living, will yet see the goodness of God.
14 Gaidi uz To Kungu, esi drošs un stiprs savā sirdī, un gaidi uz To Kungu.
Let your heart be courageous and strong, and wait on the Lord.
