Psalmi 36
1 Dāvida, Tā Kunga kalpa, dziesma. Dziedātāju vadonim. Savā sirds dziļumā es nomanu vienu Dieva vārdu par bezdievīgā pārkāpšanu: ka Dieva bijāšanas nav priekš viņa acīm.
For the music director. A psalm of David, servant of the Lord. Evil speaks to the wicked, deep down in their minds, for in their eyes they have no need to respect God.
2 Jo tas pārrunājās pats savās acīs, ka viņa noziegumu neatradīs un nenīdēs.
In their own eyes they're so wonderful that they can't even see their sin and do something about it.
3 Viņa mutes vārdi ir nelietība un viltība, viņš vairs neprot laba darīt.
Whatever they say is deceptive and deceitful. They no longer do anything wisely or for good.
4 Viņš izdomā nelietību savā gultā, viņš iet pa tādu ceļu, kas nav labs, ļaunu viņš neatmet.
Even when they're lying in bed they think up evil schemes. They commit themselves to a way of life that is no good. They choose evil, and don't reject it.
5 Ak Kungs, Tava žēlastība sniedzās līdz pat debesīm, un Tava patiesība līdz padebešiem.
Lord, your faithful love reaches to the heavens, your trustworthiness to the clouds.
6 Tava taisnība stāv tāpat kā Dieva kalni, Tavas tiesas kā lieli dziļumi; Kungs, Tu palīdzi cilvēkiem un lopiem.
Your goodness is like the highest mountains, your fairness is like the deepest oceans. Lord, you save both the people and the animals.
7 Cik dārga ir, ak Dievs, Tava žēlastība, ka cilvēku bērni patveras apakš Tavu spārnu ēnas!
God, how priceless is your trustworthy love! Everyone can find protection under the shelter of your wings.
8 Tie top pildīti no Tava nama taukumiem, un Tu tos dzirdini no Tava garduma upēm,
They gain strength from the wonderful food you provide in your house; you give them drink from your refreshing river.
9 Jo pie Tevis ir dzīvības avots, Tavā gaismā mēs redzam gaismu.
You are the source of life; you are the light by which we see.
10 Izplet Savu žēlastību pār tiem, kas Tevi pazīst, un Savu taisnību pār sirds skaidriem.
Extend your trustworthy love to those who know you, and your goodness to those who truly live right.
11 Lai lepno kāja nenāk pār mani, un bezdievīgo roka lai mani nevajā.
Don't let the arrogant trample me down; don't let the wicked drive me out.
12 Redzi, ļaundarītāji krīt; tie top zemē gāzti un vairs nevar celties.
Now look! See how those who do evil have fallen—thrown down, unable to get up.
