Mga Awit 59
Magandang Balita Biblia
Panalangin Upang Ingatan ng Diyos
Katha(A) ni David upang awitin ng Punong Mang-aawit: ayon sa tono ng “Huwag Mong Sirain”. Isang Miktam,[a] nang pamanmanan ni Saul ang kanyang bahay upang siya'y mapatay.
59 Sa aking kaaway,
iligtas mo ako, O aking Diyos;
ingatan mo ako kapag sila'y lumusob.
2 Sa masamang tao,
ako ay iligtas, at sa pumapatay
agawin mo ako at iyong ingatan.
3 Sila'y nag-aabang,
pagmasdan mo yaong taong mababagsik;
nagtipo't ang layon ako ay iligpit.
Ang dahilan nito,
di dahil sa ako'y may pagkakamali,
4 o may pagkukulang na ako ang sanhi;
O Diyos, masdan sila at nagdudumali.
5 Tulungan mo ako,
Yahweh, Makapangyarihang Diyos.
Ikaw ang magmasid, O Diyos ng Israel!
Ikaw ay gumising,
at ang mga bansa'y iyong parusahan;
yaong mga taksil, huwag mong kahabagan. (Selah)[b]
6 Pagdating ng gabi,
sila'y nagbabalik sa loob ng lunsod;
asong kumakahol ang nakakatulad
habang naglilibot.
7 Dinggin ang salita't
parang mga tabak ang dila ng bibig!
Ngunit nagtatanong:
“Sa amin ay sino ang makikinig?”
8 Ngunit ikaw, Yahweh,
tinatawanan mo't iyong kinukutya;
gayon ang gawa mo sa may salang bansa.
9 Ikaw, Panginoon,
ang aking Diyos, aking kalakasan;
ikaw ang muog ko at aking kanlungan.
10 Ako'y minamahal,
mahal ako ng Diyos, ako'y lalapitan
upang ipamalas ang kanyang paglupig sa mga kaaway.
11 Huwag mong papatayin,
nang di malimutan ng iyong mga lingkod.
Sa taglay mong lakas pangalatin sila at iyong isabog;
ikaw ang sanggalang, Yahweh, aming Diyos.
12 Sa kanilang labi'y
pawang kasamaan ang namumutawi;
sa pagmamataas, ang aking dalangin, sila ay mahuli,
pagkat sinungaling at sa pangungutya, sila'y nawiwili.
13 Wasakin mong lubos,
dahil sa iyong galit, ganap mong wasakin;
dito malalaman
ng lahat, na ika'y hari ng Israel,
at sa sansinukob ikaw ang hari din. (Selah)[c]
14 Pagdating ng gabi,
sila'y nagbabalik sa loob ng lunsod;
asong kumakahol ang nakakatulad
habang naglilibot.
15 Animo'y lagalag,
lakad lang nang lakad, pagkain ang hanap;
hindi masiyahan, kapag ang nakuha nila'y hindi sapat.
16 Ngunit aawit ako,
pagkat ang taglay mo'y pambihirang lakas,
sa tuwing umaga ang aawitin ko'y pag-ibig mong wagas;
pagkat ika'y muog, sa buhay kong ito,
at aking kanlungan kapag lugmok ako.
17 Pupurihin kita,
tagapagtanggol ko at aking kanlungan,
Diyos kong mapagmahal.

A Prayer for Protection
For the music director, according to Do Not Destroy.
Of David. A miktam.
When Saul dispatched men and they watched the house to kill him.[a]
59 Deliver me from my enemies, O my God.
Protect[b] me from those who rise up against me.
2 Deliver me from workers of iniquity,
and from men of bloodshed save me.
3 For look, they lie in wait for my life.[c]
The mighty attack[d] against me,
not because of my transgression or my sin, O Yahweh.
4 Without guilt on my part they run and ready themselves.
Awake to meet me and see.
5 And you, Yahweh, God of hosts, are the God of Israel.
Rouse yourself to punish all the nations.
Do not be gracious to any who treacherously plot evil. Selah
6 They return at evening; they howl like dogs[e]
while they prowl the city.
7 Look, they pour out talk with their mouth.
Swords are on their lips,
for they say, “Who hears?”
8 But you, O Yahweh, will laugh at them;
you will mock all the nations.
9 O my strength,[f] I will watch for you,
because you, O God, are my (high) stronghold.
10 My[g] God of loyal love will meet me;
God will cause me to look in triumph on my enemies.
11 Do not kill them, lest my people forget.
Make them to wander by your power,
and bring them down, O Lord, our shield.
12 By the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips,
even in their pride, let them be trapped,
and for the curses[h] and lies[i] they proclaim.
13 Destroy in anger; destroy so they are no more,
so that they may know that God is ruling in Jacob
to the ends of the earth. Selah
14 They return at evening; they howl like dogs[j]
while they prowl the city.
15 As for them, they wander for food.
If they are not satisfied, then they continue all night.[k]
16 But as for me, I will sing of your strength,
and I will hail your loyal love in the morning,
because you have been my high stronghold
and a refuge in my time[l] of trouble.
17 O my strength, to you I will give praise,
because God is my high stronghold,
my God of loyal love.
