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!
(By David for the music leader. To be used when an offering is made.)
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!
