Psalms 63

1 A Psalm of David, when he was in the Wilderness of Judah. O God, You are my God. Earnestly I seek You; my soul thirsts for You. My body yearns for You in a dry and weary land without water.

Oh Bog, ti si moj Bog, zgodaj te bom iskal. Mojo dušo žeja po tebi, moje meso hrepeni po tebi v suhi in žejni deželi, kjer ni vode,

2 So I have seen You in the sanctuary and beheld Your power and glory.

da bi videl tvojo oblast in tvojo slavo, tako kot sem te videl v svetišču.

3 Because Your loving devotion is better than life, my lips will glorify You.

Ker je tvoja ljubeča skrbnost boljša kot življenje, te bodo moje ustnice hvalile.

4 So I will bless You as long as I live; in Your name I will lift my hands.

Tako te bom blagoslavljal, medtem ko živim, svoje roke bom vzdigoval v tvojem imenu.

5 My soul is satisfied as with the richest of foods; with joyful lips my mouth will praise You.

Moja duša bo nasičena kakor z mozgom in tolščo in moja usta te bodo hvalila z radostnimi ustnicami,

6 When I remember You on my bed, I think of You through the watches of the night.

ko se te spominjam na svoji postelji in o tebi premišljujem v nočnih stražah.

7 For You are my help; I will sing for joy in the shadow of Your wings.

Ker si bil ti moja pomoč, zato se bom veselil v senci tvojih peruti.

8 My soul clings to You; Your right hand upholds me.

Moja duša trdno sledi tebi; tvoja desnica me podpira.

9 But those who seek my life to destroy it will go into the depths of the earth.

Toda tisti, ki iščejo mojo dušo, da bi jo uničili, bodo šli v globočine zemlje.

10 They will fall to the power of the sword; they will become a portion for foxes.

Padli bodo pod mečem; delež bodo za lisice.

11 But the king will rejoice in God; all who swear by Him will exult, for the mouths of liars will be shut.

Toda kralj se bo veselil v Bogu, vsak, kdor prisega z njim, bo v tem užival, toda usta teh, ki govorijo laži, bodo zamašena.
