Dagiti Salmo 10
1 O Yahweh, apay nga umad-adayoka? Apay nga aglemlemmengka iti tiempo ti riribuk?
Lord, why are you so distant? Why do you hide from me in times of trouble?
2 Gapu iti kinapalangguadda, kamaten dagiti nadangkes a tattao dagiti maidaddadanes; ngem pangngaasim ta ipalubosmo a mapalab-ogan dagiti nadangkes babaen kadagiti bukodda a panggep nga insaganada.
The wicked chase down the poor with impunity. May they be trapped by the evil schemes they themselves invented.
3 Ta ipaspasindayag ti nadangkes a tao ti nalaus a tarigagayna; padpadayawanna dagiti naagum ken lalaisenna ni Yahweh.
For the wicked boast about what they want to do. They praise the greedy, but treat the Lord with contempt.
4 Ti nadangkes a tao ket natangsit, saanna a sapsapulen ti Dios. Pulos a saanna a panpanunoten ti Dios gapu ta saanna a pagan-ano ti maipapan kenkuana.
The wicked are too proud to come to God. In all their thinking they never consider God.
5 Natalged isuna iti amin a tiempo, ngem nangato unay kenkuana dagiti nalinteg a bilbilinmo; tagtagibassitenna dagiti amin a kabusorna.
What they do always seems to go well. They're unaware of God's judgments. They ridicule all their enemies.
6 Kunaenna iti pusona, “Saanakto pulos a mapaay; saanakto a makapadas iti riribuk iti amin a henerasion.”
They tell themselves, “Nothing bad is going to happen to me. I'll never be in trouble!”
7 Napnoan ti ngiwatna iti panangilunod, panangallilaw, ken makapasakit a sasao; mangdangran ken mangdadael ti dilana.
Their speech is full of cursing, lies, and threats; their tongues are always ready to spread trouble and cause evil.
8 Agab-abang isuna nga agsaneb iti asideg dagiti purpurok; patpatayenna dagiti awan basolna kadagiti nalimed a lugar; agsisiim dagiti matana kadagiti biktimaenna nga awan gawayna.
They hide out in ambush in the villages, ready to kill innocent passers-by. They are always on the lookout for their next victim.
9 Aglemlemmeng isuna a kasla leon iti kasamekan; agpadpadaan isuna a mangtiliw kadagiti maidaddadanes. Tiltiliwenna dagiti maidaddadanes no guyodenna ti silona.
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.
10 Marumek ken madangran dagiti biktimana; matnagda kadagiti nalagda a silona.
Their victims are knocked down, laid low. They fall under the strength of the wicked.
11 Kunaenna iti pusona, “Nanglipat ti Dios; lenglengdanna ti rupana; saannan a kayat ti kumita.”
They tell themselves, “God won't notice. He's looking the other way. He won't ever see anything.”
12 Bumangonka, O Yahweh; ingatom ti imam iti panangukom, O Dios. Saanmo a lipaten dagiti maidaddadanes.
Take a stand, Lord! Raise your hand to strike! Don't forget those who can't defend themselves.
13 Apay a laklaksiden ti nadangkes a tao ti Dios ken kunaenna iti pusona, “Awanto ti sungsungbatak kenka”?
Why do the wicked think they can treat God with such contempt? Why do they think that God won't make them accountable?
14 Nakitam, ta kanayon a makitkitam ti mangpaspasagrap iti riribuk ken liday. Italtalek dagiti awan gawayna ti bagida kenka; is-ispalem dagiti ulila.
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.
15 Tukkolem ti takiag ti nadangkes ken managdakdakes a tao; dusaem isuna gapu kadagiti dakes nga aramidna, nga impagarupna a saanmo a matakuatan.
Destroy the power of the wicked, those evil people! Call each of them to account until there are none left!
16 Ni Yahweh ti Ari iti agnanayon ken awan patinggana; mapapanaw dagiti nasion iti dagana.
Lord, you are King forever and ever! The nations will vanish from their lands.
17 O Yahweh, nangngegmo dagiti kasapulan dagiti maidaddadanes; pappapigsaem ti pusoda, dengdenggem ti kararagda;
Lord, you have heard the longing cries of those who are suffering. You will encourage them, for you will listen to them.
18 ikankanawam dagiti ulila ken dagiti maidaddadanes tapno awan ti tao ditoy rabaw ti daga ti mangbutbuteng manen.
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.
