God Is Wonderful
1 Save me, Lord God!
Hurry and help.
2 Disappoint and confuse
all who want to kill me.
Turn away and disgrace
all who want to hurt me.
3 Embarrass and shame those
who say, “We told you so!”
4 Let your worshipers celebrate
and be glad because of you.
They love your saving power,
so let them always say,
“God is wonderful!”
5 I am poor and needy,
but you, the Lord God,
care about me.
You are the one who saves me.
Please hurry and help!
Lūgšana pēc palīga un glābēja no naidniekiem
(Ps 40:14–18)1 Korvedim. Dāvida psalms, lai daudzinātu.
2 Dievs, nāc glāb mani, Kungs, palīgā steidzies!
3 Kauns tiem un misēklis, kas manu dzīvību meklē!
Lai bēg ar negodu, kas man vēl ļaunu!
4 Lai aizbēg apkaunoti tie, kas saka: ā, re! –
5 Lai līksmo tevī un priecājas visi, kas meklē tevi,
un allaž lai saka: liels ir Dievs! –
tie, kuri mīl tavu pestīšanu!
6 Bet es – nabaga cietējs –
Dievs, steidzies pie manis!
Mans palīgs un glābējs tu, Kungs, –
nekavējies!
