King James Version
AFR DVK
1
A Prayer of David. Hear the right, O LORD, attend unto my cry, give ear unto my prayer, [that goeth] not out of feigned lips.
Hoor die reg, o HERE, let op my geroep, gee oor aan my gebed, wat nie uit bedrieglike lippe uitgaan nie.
2
Let my sentence come forth from thy presence; let thine eyes behold the things that are equal.
Laat my vonnis van u teenwoordigheid uitgaan; laat u oë die regte dinge aanskou.
3
Thou hast proved mine heart; thou hast visited [me] in the night; thou hast tried me, [and] shalt find nothing; I am purposed [that] my mouth shall not transgress.
U het my hart beproef; U het my in die nag besoek; U het my beproef, en sal niks vind nie; ek is vasbeslote dat my mond nie sal oortree nie.
4
Concerning the works of men, by the word of thy lips I have kept [me from] the paths of the destroyer.
Aangaande die werke van die mens, deur die woord van u lippe het ek my bewaar van die paaie van die verwoester.
5
Hold up my goings in thy paths, [that] my footsteps slip not.
Ondersteun my treë in u paaie, dat my voetstappe nie gly nie.
6
I have called upon thee, for thou wilt hear me, O God: incline thine ear unto me, [and hear] my speech.
Ek het U aangeroep, want U sal my hoor, o God: neig u oor tot my, en hoor my toespraak.
7
Shew thy marvellous lovingkindness, O thou that savest by thy right hand them which put their trust [in thee] from those that rise up [against them].
Toon u wonderlike liefde, U wat deur u regterhand red dié wat op U vertrou van dié wat teen hulle opstaan.
8
Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings,
Bewaar my soos die appel van die oog, verberg my onder die skaduwee van u vlerke,
9
From the wicked that oppress me, [from] my deadly enemies, [who] compass me about.
Van die goddelose wat my verdruk, van my dodelike vyande, wat my omsingel.
10
They are inclosed in their own fat: with their mouth they speak proudly.
Hulle is in hulleself toegesluit: met hulle mond spreek hulle trots.
11
They have now compassed us in our steps: they have set their eyes bowing down to the earth;
Hulle het ons nou in ons treë omsingel: hulle het hulle oë neergesit, neerbuigend na die aarde;
12
Like as a lion [that] is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.
Soos ’n leeu wat gretig is om te verskeur, en soos ’n jong leeu wat in geheime plekke lê.
13
Arise, O LORD, disappoint him, cast him down: deliver my soul from the wicked, [which is] thy sword:
Staan op, o HERE, teleurstel hom, werp hom neer: red my siel van die goddelose, wat u swaard is:
14
From men [which are] thy hand, O LORD, from men of the world, [which have] their portion in [this] life, and whose belly thou fillest with thy hid [treasure]: they are full of children, and leave the rest of their [substance] to their babes.
Van manne wat u hand is, o HERE, van manne van die wêreld, wat hulle deel in hierdie lewe het, en wie se buik U met u verborge skat vul: hulle is vol van kinders, en laat die res van hulle substansie aan hulle babas na.
15
As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.
Wat my betref, ek sal u aangesig in geregtigheid aanskou: ek sal versadig word, wanneer ek ontwaak, met u gelykenis.
