Salm 58 (59):2-5,10-11,17-18

Talba fit-taħbit
Kull waħda minn dawn il-kelmiet tas-Salvatur turina b’liema tjieba kien iweġġaħ lil Missieru. (Ewsebju ta’ Ċesarija) 

Eħlisni mill-għedewwa, o Alla tiegħi, *
ħarisni minn dawk li jqumu għalija.
Eħlisni minn dawk li jagħmlu l-ħażen, *
salvani min-nies qattiela. 

Għax huma jinħbew biex jonsbuli ħajti, †
nies qalila jinġemgħu kontrija; *
u dan, Mulej, bla tort u bla ħtija tiegħi.
Għalkemm jien bla ħtija, *
huma jiġru u jlestu għalija. 

Imma int, Mulej tal-eżerċti, †
Alla ta’ Iżrael, qum, *
ejja u ara b’għajnejk.
Qawwa tiegħi, jiena lilek nistenna, *
għax int, Alla, fortizza tiegħi.
Alla tiegħi, imħabba tiegħi, jiġi jilqagħni; *
jurini Alla l-għedewwa tiegħi mirbuħa.
Iżda jien ngħanni lill-qawwa tiegħek; *
ngħanni ferħan filgħodu lit-tjieba tiegħek;
għax int sirt fortizza għalija, *
kenn tiegħi f’jum id-dwejjaq.
Qawwa tiegħi, lilek ferħan ngħanni; †
għax inti, Alla, fortizza tiegħi, *
Alla tiegħi, imħabba tiegħi! 

Glorja.

Daytime Prayer, Friday 1 March 2024

Psalm 59:2-5, 10-11, 17-18
Prayer for help against enemies

These words of the Savior teach us the devotion that all should have for the Father (Eusebius of Caesarea).

Rescue me, God, from my foes; *
protect me from those who attack me.
O rescue me from those who do evil *
and save me from blood-thirsty men.

See, they lie in wait for my life; *
powerful men band together against me.
For no offense, no sin of mine, Lord, †
for no guilt of mine they rush to take their stand. *
Awake, come to my aid and see!

O my Strength, it is you to whom I turn, †
for you, O God, are my stronghold, *
the God who shows me love.

O God, come to my aid *
and let me look in triumph on my foes.

As for me, I will sing of your strength *
and each morning acclaim your love
for you have been my stronghold, *
a refuge in the day of my distress.

O my Strength, it is you to whom I turn, †
for you, O God, are my stronghold, *
the God who shows me love.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, *
and to the Holy Spirit:
as it was in the beginning, is now, *
and will be for ever. Amen.
