Psalm 59
For the choir director: A psalm[a] of David, regarding the time Saul sent soldiers to watch David’s house in order to kill him. To be sung to the tune “Do Not Destroy!”
1 Rescue me from my enemies, O God.
Protect me from those who have come to destroy me.
2 Rescue me from these criminals;
save me from these murderers.
3 They have set an ambush for me.
Fierce enemies are out there waiting, Lord,
though I have not sinned or offended them.
4 I have done nothing wrong,
yet they prepare to attack me.
Wake up! See what is happening and help me!
5 O Lord God of Heaven’s Armies, the God of Israel,
wake up and punish those hostile nations.
Show no mercy to wicked traitors. Interlude
6 They come out at night,
snarling like vicious dogs
as they prowl the streets.
7 Listen to the filth that comes from their mouths;
their words cut like swords.
“After all, who can hear us?” they sneer.
8 But Lord, you laugh at them.
You scoff at all the hostile nations.
9 You are my strength; I wait for you to rescue me,
for you, O God, are my fortress.
10 In his unfailing love, my God will stand with me.
He will let me look down in triumph on all my enemies.
11 Don’t kill them, for my people soon forget such lessons;
stagger them with your power, and bring them to their knees,
O Lord our shield.
12 Because of the sinful things they say,
because of the evil that is on their lips,
let them be captured by their pride,
their curses, and their lies.
13 Destroy them in your anger!
Wipe them out completely!
Then the whole world will know
that God reigns in Israel.[b] Interlude
14 My enemies come out at night,
snarling like vicious dogs
as they prowl the streets.
15 They scavenge for food
but go to sleep unsatisfied.[c]
16 But as for me, I will sing about your power.
Each morning I will sing with joy about your unfailing love.
For you have been my refuge,
a place of safety when I am in distress.
17 O my Strength, to you I sing praises,
for you, O God, are my refuge,
the God who shows me unfailing love.

Salmo 59
Ang Pulong Sa Dios
Ang Pag-ampo Batok sa mga Daotan
59 O Dios, luwasa ako gikan sa akong mga kaaway;
panalipdi ako sa mga nakigbatok kanako.
2 Luwasa ako gikan sa mga tawong daotan ug sa mga mamumuno.
3 Ginoo, tan-awa! Nagaatang sila aron sa pagpatay kanako bisan wala ako makasala kanila.
4-5 Wala akoy nahimong sala, apan andam sila sa pag-ataki kanako.
Sige na, Ginoong Dios nga Makagagahom, Dios sa Israel,
siloti ang mga katawhan nga wala motuo kanimo.
Ayaw kaloy-i ang mga maluibon.
6 Mamalik sila inigkagabii nga daw sa mga iro nga magngulob nga maglibot-libot sa siyudad.
7 Pamatia ang ilang gipanulti;
mga masakit nga mga pulong ang nagagawas sa ilang baba, sama kini kasakit sa igo sa espada.
Nagaingon pa sila, “Walay makadungog kanato.”
8 Apan ikaw, Ginoo, kataw-an mo sila nga wala motuo kanimo.
Biay-biayon mo silang tanan.
9 O Dios, ikaw ang akong kusog;
magahulat ako kanimo kay ikaw ang akong dalangpanan.
10 Ikaw ang Dios nga nagahigugma kanako. Mag-una ka kanako ug ipakita mo ang kapildihan sa akong mga kaaway.
11 Apan ayaw sila patya diha-diha
kay basin ug malimtan sa akong mga katawhan kon giunsa mo pagsilot ang imong mga kaaway.
O Ginoo nga among tigpanalipod,
ipahisalaag ug laglaga ang akong mga kaaway pinaagi sa imong gahom.
12 Nagpakasala sila pinaagi sa ilang gipanulti.
Hinaut nga malit-agan sila sa ilang pagkamapahitas-on,
kay nagpakadaotan sila ug namakak.
13 Sa imong kasuko, laglaga sila hangtod nga mangawala sila sa hingpit.
Unya masayran sa mga tawo nga ikaw, O Dios, nagahari sa Israel ug sa tibuok kalibotan.[a]
14 Sa gabii, mamalik ang akong mga kaaway nga daw mga iro nga magngulob nga maglibot-libot sa siyudad.
15 Sama sila sa iro nga nagalibot-libot sa pagpangita ug pagkaon, ug magngulob kon dili mabusog.
16 Apan mag-awit ako mahitungod sa imong gahom.
Kada buntag magaawit ako nga malipayon sa pagdayeg sa imong gugma.
Tungod kay ikaw ang akong dalangpanan,
ang nagapanalipod kanako sa panahon sa kalisod.
17 O Dios, ikaw ang akong kusog;
magaawit ako ug mga pagdayeg kanimo
kay ikaw ang akong dalangpanan, ang Dios nga nagahigugma kanako.

you, God, are my fortress,
my God on whom I can rely.(AK)
