Pateicība un lūgšana pēc uzvaras
(Ps 57:8–12Ps 60:7–14)1 Dziesma. Dāvida psalms .
2 Droša man sirds, Dievs,
dziedāšu es un spēlēšu – es un mans gods!
3 Mostieties, arfa un cītara, atmodināšu rīta ausmu!
4 Teikšu tevi starp ļaudīm, mans Kungs,
skandēšu tevi starp tautām,
5 jo liela pār debesīm tava žēlastība
un līdz mākoņiem tava patiesība!
6 Pacelies pār debesīm, Dievs,
un pār visu zemi lai ir tava godība!
7 Palīdzi mums ar savu labo roku un uzklausi mani,
tad tavi mīļotie būs glābti!
8 Dievs runā no savas svētnīcas:
es līksmošos! Es sadalīšu Šehemu,
un Lieveņu ieleju es izmērošu!
9 Man pieder Gileāda, un man pieder Manase,
Efraims ir mana bruņucepure,
Jūda – mans zizlis!
10 Moābs ir mans mazgājamais kubls!
Edomam es uzsviežu savu sandali!
Filistija brēc manis dēļ!
11 Kas mani ievedīs nocietinātajā pilsētā,
kas var mani vadīt uz Edomu?
12 Vai tu, Dievs, esi atmetis mūs,
vai nenāksi līdzi, Dievs, mūsu karapulkiem?
13 Palīdzi mums pret naidniekiem,
pie cilvēkiem tverties – blēņas vien!
14 Ar Dievu mēs jaudāsim,
viņš samīdīs mūsu naidniekus!
A Prayer for Help against Enemies
(Psalm 57.7-11Psalm 60.5-12)1 I have complete confidence, O God!
I will sing and praise you!
Wake up, my soul!
2 Wake up, my harp and lyre!
I will wake up the sun.
3 I will thank you, O Lord, among the nations.
I will praise you among the peoples.
4 Your constant love reaches above the heavens;
your faithfulness touches the skies.
5 Show your greatness in the sky, O God,
and your glory over all the earth.
6 Save us by your might; answer my prayer,
so that the people you love may be rescued.
7 From his sanctuary God has said,
“In triumph I will divide Shechem
and distribute Sukkoth Valley to my people.
8 Gilead is mine, and Manasseh too;
Ephraim is my helmet
and Judah my royal scepter.
9 But I will use Moab as my washbowl,
and I will throw my sandals on Edom,
as a sign that I own it.
I will shout in triumph over the Philistines.”
10 Who, O God, will take me into the fortified city?
Who will lead me to Edom?
11 Have you really rejected us?
Aren't you going to march out with our armies?
12 Help us against the enemy;
human help is worthless.
13 With God on our side we will win;
he will defeat our enemies.
