Psalms 3
1 A Psalm of David, when he fled from his son Absalom. O LORD, how my foes have increased! How many rise up against me!
Gospod, kako so se okrepili ti, ki me vznemirjajo! Številni so tisti, ki se vzdigujejo zoper mene.
2 Many say of me, “God will not deliver him.”
Mnogo jih je, ki pravijo o moji duši: »Zanj ni pomoči pri Bogu.« (Sela)
3 But You, O LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, and the One who lifts my head.
Toda ti, oh Gospod, si zame ščit, moja slava in tisti, ki mi dviguje mojo glavo.
4 To the LORD I cry aloud, and He answers me from His holy mountain.
S svojim glasom sem jokal h Gospodu in slišal me je iz svoje svete gore. (Sela)
5 I lie down and sleep; I wake again, for the LORD sustains me.
Zleknil sem se in spal, prebudil sem se, kajti Gospod me je podpiral.
6 I will not fear the myriads set against me on every side.
Ne bom se bal deset tisočev ljudi, ki so se okrog in okrog usmerili zoper mene.
7 Arise, O LORD! Save me, O my God! Strike all my enemies on the jaw; break the teeth of the wicked.
Vstani, oh Gospod, reši me, oh moj Bog. Kajti vse moje sovražnike si udaril po čeljusti, razbil si zobe brezbožnih.
8 Salvation belongs to the LORD; may Your blessing be on Your people.
Rešitev duše pripada Gospodu. Nad tvojim ljudstvom je tvoj blagoslov. (Sela)
