Salmos 140
Grunewald-Ubersetzung
1Auf den Siegverleiher, ein Lied von David.
2Befrei mich, Herr, von bösen Menschen!Behüt mich vor den ungerechten Leuten,
3die in dem Herzen Böses sinnen,alltäglich Händel stiften,
4die wie die Schlangen züngeln,und deren Rede Otterngift enthält! (Sela.)
5Behüt mich, Herr, vor Frevlerhänden!Bewahre mich vor ungerechten Menschen,die mir ein Bein zu stellen suchen! -
6Mir legen Übermütige Schlingen,und Stricke legen sie als Netz den Pfad entlang;sie stellen Fallen für mich auf. (Sela.)
7Ich aber sag zum Herrn: "Mein Gott bist Du.Vernimm mein lautes Flehen, Herr!"
8Herr, Du mein Herr, Du meine mächtige Hilfe!Mein Haupt beschirme an dem Tag, da Waffen klirren!
9Erfüll nicht, Herr, der Frevler Wünsche!Laß ihren Anschlag, zu obsiegen, nicht gelingen! (Sela.)
10Auf meiner Gegner Haupt herniederfalledas Unheil, das sie selbst gerufen!
11Hernieder falle Kohlenglut auf sie!Man lasse sie in Gruben stürzen,woraus sie nicht mehr sich erheben!
12Nicht halte sich im Lande der Verleumder auf!Den Mann des Frevels soll das Böse jähem Sturz entgegenjagen! -
13Ich weiß: Der Herr führt der Bedrückten Sache,den Rechtshandel der Armen. Die Frommen können Deinem Namen danken;vor Deinem Antlitz dürfen Redliche verweilen.
Reina-Valera 1909
1Al Músico principal: Salmo de David. LÍBRAME, oh Jehová, de hombre malo: guárdame de hombre violento;
2Los cuales maquinan males en el corazón, cada día urden contiendas.
3Aguzaron su lengua como la serpiente; veneno de áspid hay debajo de sus labios. (Selah.)
4Guárdame, oh Jehová, de manos del impío, presérvame del hombre injurioso; que han pensado de trastornar mis pasos.
5Hanme escondido lazo y cuerdas los soberbios; han tendido red junto á la senda; me han puesto lazos. (Selah.)
6He dicho á Jehová: Dios mío eres tú; escucha, oh Jehová, la voz de mis ruegos.
7Jehová Señor, fortaleza de mi salud, tú pusiste á cubierto mi cabeza el día de las armas.
8No des, oh Jehová, al impío sus deseos; no saques adelante su pensamiento, que no se ensoberbezca. (Selah.)
9En cuanto á los que por todas partes me rodean, la maldad de sus propios labios cubrirá su cabeza.
10Caerán sobre ellos brasas; Dios los hará caer en el fuego, en profundos hoyos de donde no salgan.
11El hombre deslenguado no será firme en la tierra: el mal cazará al hombre injusto para derribarle.
12Yo sé que hará Jehová el juicio del afligido, el juicio de los menesterosos.
13Ciertamente los justos alabarán tu nombre; los rectos morarán en tu presencia.
King James Version
1Deliver me, O LORD, from the evil man: preserve me from the violent man;
2Which imagine mischiefs in their heart; continually are they gathered together for war.
3They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; adders’ poison is under their lips. Selah.
4Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me from the violent man; who have purposed to overthrow my goings.
5The proud have hid a snare for me, and cords; they have spread a net by the wayside; they have set gins for me. Selah.
6I said unto the LORD, Thou art my God: hear the voice of my supplications, O LORD.
7O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, thou hast covered my head in the day of battle.
8Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked: further not his wicked device; lest they exalt themselves. Selah.
9As for the head of those that compass me about, let the mischief of their own lips cover them.
10Let burning coals fall upon them: let them be cast into the fire; into deep pits, that they rise not up again.
11Let not an evil speaker be established in the earth: evil shall hunt the violent man to overthrow him.
12I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted, and the right of the poor.
13Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto thy name: the upright shall dwell in thy presence.
World English Bible
1Deliver me, LORD, from evil men. Preserve me from violent men:
2those who devise mischief in their hearts. They continually gather themselves together for war.
3They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent. Viper’s poison is under their lips. Selah.
4LORD, keep me from the hands of the wicked. Preserve me from the violent men who have determined to trip my feet.
5The proud have hidden a snare for me, they have spread the cords of a net by the path. They have set traps for me. Selah.
6I said to the LORD, “You are my God.” Listen to the cry of my petitions, LORD.
7LORD, the Lord, the strength of my salvation, you have covered my head in the day of battle.
8LORD, don’t grant the desires of the wicked. Don’t let their evil plans succeed, or they will become proud. Selah.
9As for the head of those who surround me, let the mischief of their own lips cover them.
10Let burning coals fall on them. Let them be thrown into the fire, into miry pits, from where they never rise.
11An evil speaker won’t be established in the earth. Evil will hunt the violent man to overthrow him.
12I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted, and justice for the needy.
13Surely the righteous will give thanks to your name. The upright will dwell in your presence.
