Psalms

Psalm 55

1 GIVE ear to my prayer, O God; and reject not my supplication.

2 Hear me and answer me; return to my cry and incline to me,

3 Because of mine enemies, because of the oppression of the wicked; for they have devised iniquity against me, and reproached me.

4 My heart is greatly pained within me; and the terrors of death are fallen upon me.

5 Fearfulness and trembling are come upon me, and the shadow of death has overwhelmed me.

6 And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! Then would I fly away and be at rest.

7 Lo, then I would fly far off and dwell in the wilderness.

8 I would wait for him that will save me from the windy storm and the tempest.

9 Destroy, O LORD, and render useless their tongues; for I have seen violence and strife in the city.

10 Day and night they go about it, around its walls; injustice and mischief are in the midst of it.

11 Wickedness is in the midst of it; deceit and guile depart not from its streets.

12 For it was not mine enemy that reproached me; then I could have borne it; neither was it he that hated me that did magnify himself against me; then I would have hid myself from him;

13 But it was you, a man mine equal, my kinsman, and my friend.

14 We ate a meal together in the house of God, and we walked in harmony.

15 Bring death upon them; bury them alive in the grave, because there is evil among them.

16 As for me, I will call upon God; and God shall save me.

17 At evening and in the morning and at noon will I pray and cry aloud; and he shall hear my voice.

18 Deliver my soul from those who have been too wise for me, from those who have opposed me continuously.

19 God, even the Eternal one, shall hear and humble them. With them also there are no changes; therefore they fear not God.

20 They have put forth their hands against their neighbours, they have broken his covenant.

21 They were afraid because of the anger in his countenance and the wrath in his heart; his words were smoother than butter, yet were they sharp like the point of a spear.

22 Cast your worries upon the LORD and he will sustain you; he will never suffer the righteous to fear want.

23 But thou, O God, shalt bring them down into the pit of destruction; bloody and deceitful men shall not live out their days; but I will trust in thee.

Песнь 55

1 Дирижёру хора. На мотив «О голубке в дальней дубраве». Мольба Давуда, когда филистимляне схватили его в Гате.

2 Всевышний, помилуй меня, потому что люди меня затравили; всякий день, нападая, меня теснят.

3 Враг травит меня всякий день; как же много воюющих со мной, о Высочайший! .

4 Когда мне страшно, я на Тебя полагаюсь.

5 На Всевышнего, Чьё слово я славлю, на Всевышнего полагаюсьи не устрашусь: что может мне сделать смертный?

6 А мои враги всякий день искажают слова мои, всегда замышляют сделать мне зло.

7 Они составляют заговоры, таятся, наблюдают за каждым моим шагом, желая меня убить.

8 Так не дай им избежать наказания за их вину; в гневе Своём, Всевышний, низложи народы!

9 У Тебя записаны все скитания мои; собери мои слёзы в сосуд Свой, – не в Твоей ли книге они?

10 И враги мои обратятся вспять, когда я о помощи воззову. Так я узнаю, что Всевышний со мной.

11 На Всевышнего, Чьё слово я славлю, на Вечного, Чьё слово я славлю,

12 на Всевышнего полагаюсь и не устрашусь: что может мне сделать человек?

13 Всевышний, я дам Тебе, что обещал; я принесу Тебе жертвы благодарения.

14 Ведь Ты спас меня от смерти и не дал споткнуться моим ногам,чтобы мне во свете живых ходить пред Тобою.
