To the chief Musician on Neginoth, Maschil, A Psalm of David, when the Ziphims came and said to Saul, Doth not David hide himself with us?
1 Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me by thy strength.
2 Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth.
3 For strangers are risen up against me, and oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set God before them. Selah.
4 Behold, God is mine helper: the Lord is with them that uphold my soul.
5 He shall reward evil unto mine enemies: cut them off in thy truth.
6 I will freely sacrifice unto thee: I will praise thy name, O LORD; for it is good.
7 For he hath delivered me out of all trouble: and mine eye hath seen his desire upon mine enemies.
Dievs – mans palīgs
1 Korvedim. Stīgu pavadījumam. Dāvida psalms, 2 kad zīfieši nāca un teica Saulam: vai tad tu nezini, ka Dāvids slēpjas pie mums?
3 Dievs, ar savu vārdu glāb mani
un ar savu varu mani iztiesā!
4 Dievs, uzklausi manu lūgšanu, sadzirdi manus vārdus!
5 Svešinieki ceļas pret mani,
un varmākas meklē manu dzīvību –
Dievu tie neņem vērā.
6 Redzi, Dievs – mans palīgs,
Kungs nāk spēcināt manu dvēseli.
7 Viņš atmaksās ļaunumu maniem naidniekiem!
Tu savā patiesībā iznīdē viņus!
8 Labprātīgu upuri nesīšu tev,
tavam vārdam es pateikšos, Kungs, jo tas labs,
9 jo visās briesmās tas mani glābj,
uz saviem naidniekiem nicīgi raugos!
