Psalmi 63
1 Dāvida dziesma, kad viņš bija Jūda tuksnesī. Ak Dievs! Tu esi mans stiprais Dievs, Tevi es meklēju pašā rītā, pēc Tevis slāpst manai dvēselei, pēc Tevis ilgojās mana miesa sausā un izkaltušā zemē, kur ūdens nav.
A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Idumea. O God, my God, I cry to you early; my soul has thirsted for you: how often has my flesh [longed] after you, in a barren and trackless and dry land!
2 Tā es svētā vietā pēc Tevis esmu skatījies, redzēt Tavu spēku un Tavu godību.
Thus have I appeared before you in the sanctuary, that I might see your power and your glory.
3 Jo Tava žēlastība ir labāka nekā dzīvība; manas lūpas Tevi slavē.
For your mercy is better than life: my lips shall praise you.
4 Tā es Tevi gribētu teikt mūžam, un pacelt savas rokas Tavā Vārdā.
Thus will I bless you during my life: I will lift up my hands in your name.
5 Tad mana dvēsele taptu paēdināta kā ar taukumiem un gardumiem, un mana mute Tevi slavētu ar priecīgām lūpām.
Let my soul be filled as with marrow and fatness; and [my] joyful lips shall praise your name.
6 Es Tevi pieminu apguldamies, un uzmozdamies es domāju uz Tevi.
Forasmuch as I have remembered you on my bed: in the early seasons I have meditated on you.
7 Jo Tu esi mans palīgs, un Tavu spārnu pavēnī es dziedāšu priecīgi.
For you have been my helper, and in the shelter of your wings will I rejoice.
8 Mana dvēsele Tev pieķeras, Tava labā roka mani tura.
My soul has kept very close behind you: your right hand has upheld me.
9 Bet tie, kas manu dvēseli meklē izpostīt, nogrims pašos zemes dziļumos.
But they vainly sought after my soul; they shall go into the lowest parts o the earth.
10 Tos nodos zobena asmenim un tie būs lapsām par barību.
They shall be delivered up to the power of the sword; they shall be portions for foxes.
11 Bet ķēniņš priecāsies iekš Dieva; kas pie tā zvēr, tas lielīsies; jo melkuļu mute taps aizbāzta.
But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that swears by him shall be praised; for the mouth of them that speak unjust things has been stopped.
