A Psalm of David.
1 The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
2 When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.
3 Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.
4 One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple.
5 For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.
6 And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD.
7 Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me.
8 When thou saidst , Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek.
9 Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.
10 When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up.
11 Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies.
12 Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.
13 I had fainted , unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.
14 Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.
27–САНО
Довуд саноси.
1 Сенга илтижо қиламан, эй Эгам,
Мени эшитмай қолмагин, эй суянган Қоям.
Агар менга гапирмай сукут сақласанг,
Қабрга тушган одам каби бўлиб қоламан.
2 Эшитгин, Сенга илтижо қиламан.
Муқаддас масканингга қўлларимни чўзиб,
Фарёд қилиб, Сендан мадад сўрайман.
3 Мени фосиқларнинг қаторига қўшмагин,
Уларнинг қилмишлари ёмонликдир,
Қўшниларига тилёғламалик қилади,
Юракларида эса ёвуз ниятдир.
4 Қилмишига яраша уларга жазо бергин,
Ифлосликларига яраша жазолагин.
Қабиҳ ишларига яраша адабини бергин,
Хизматига яраша уларга қайтаргин.
5 Эй Эгам, улар ишларингни қадрламас,
Сенинг ижодингга эътибор қилмас,
Сен уларни йиқитасан,
Улар қайтиб тикланолмас.
6 Олқишлар бўлсин Эгамизга,
Илтижоларимни У эшитди.
7 Эгам — менинг қудратим, қалқонимдир,
Юракдан Унга умид боғлаганман.
Эгам менга мадад берди, бахтиёрман.
Қўшиғим ила Унга шукрона айтаман.
8 Эгамиз Ўз халқининг қудратидир,
Ўзи танлаган шоҳнинг нажот қўрғонидир.
9 Халқингга нажот бер, эй Эгам,
Ўз элатингга барака бергин.
Уларнинг чўпони бўлгин,
То абад уларга ғамхўрлик қилгин.
