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–SANO
Dovud sanosi.
1 Senga iltijo qilaman, ey Egam,
Meni eshitmay qolmagin, ey suyangan Qoyam.
Agar menga gapirmay sukut saqlasang,
Qabrga tushgan odam kabi boʻlib qolaman.
2 Eshitgin, Senga iltijo qilaman.
Muqaddas maskaningga qoʻllarimni choʻzib,
Faryod qilib, Sendan madad soʻrayman.
3 Meni fosiqlarning qatoriga qoʻshmagin,
Ularning qilmishlari yomonlikdir,
Qoʻshnilariga tilyogʻlamalik qiladi,
Yuraklarida esa yovuz niyatdir.
4 Qilmishiga yarasha ularga jazo bergin,
Iflosliklariga yarasha jazolagin.
Qabih ishlariga yarasha adabini bergin,
Xizmatiga yarasha ularga qaytargin.
5 Ey Egam, ular ishlaringni qadrlamas,
Sening ijodingga eʼtibor qilmas,
Sen ularni yiqitasan,
Ular qaytib tiklanolmas.
6 Olqishlar boʻlsin Egamizga,
Iltijolarimni U eshitdi.
7 Egam — mening qudratim, qalqonimdir,
Yurakdan Unga umid bogʻlaganman.
Egam menga madad berdi, baxtiyorman.
Qoʻshigʻim ila Unga shukrona aytaman.
8 Egamiz Oʻz xalqining qudratidir,
Oʻzi tanlagan shohning najot qoʻrgʻonidir.
9 Xalqingga najot ber, ey Egam,
Oʻz elatingga baraka bergin.
Ularning choʻponi boʻlgin,
To abad ularga gʻamxoʻrlik qilgin.
