Psalms 71
1 In You, O LORD, I have taken refuge; let me never be put to shame.
Vate, oh Gospod, polagam svoje trdno upanje. Naj ne bom nikoli postavljen v zadrego.
2 In Your justice, rescue and deliver me; incline Your ear and save me.
Osvobodi me v svoji pravičnosti in mi povzroči, da pobegnem. Nagni k meni svoje uho in me reši.
3 Be my rock of refuge, where I can always go. Give the command to save me, for You are my rock and my fortress.
Bodi moje močno prebivališče, kamor se bom lahko nenehno zatekal. Dal si zapoved, da me rešiš, kajti ti si moja skala in moja trdnjava.
4 Deliver me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the grasp of the unjust and ruthless.
Osvobodi me, oh moj Bog, iz roke zlobnega, iz roke nepravičnega in krutega človeka.
5 For You are my hope, O Lord GOD, my confidence from my youth.
Kajti ti si moje upanje, oh Gospod Bog, ti si moje trdno zaupanje od moje mladosti.
6 I have leaned on You since birth; You pulled me from my mother’s womb. My praise is always for You.
S teboj sem bil podpiran od maternice. Ti si tisti, ki me je vzel iz notranjosti moje matere. O tebi bo nenehno moja hvala.
7 I have become a portent to many, but You are my strong refuge.
Mnogim sem kakor čudež, toda ti si moje močno zatočišče.
8 My mouth is filled with Your praise and with Your splendor all day long.
Naj bodo moja usta napolnjena s tvojo hvalo in s tvojo častjo ves dan.
9 Do not discard me in my old age; do not forsake me when my strength fails.
Ne zavrzi me v času visoke starosti, ne zapusti me, ko oslabi moja moč.
10 For my enemies speak against me, and those who lie in wait for my life conspire,
Kajti moji sovražniki govorijo zoper mene in tisti, ki prežijo na mojo dušo, se skupaj posvetujejo,
11 saying, “God has forsaken him; pursue him and seize him, for there is no one to rescue him.”
rekoč: »Bog ga je zapustil. Preganjajte in zgrabite ga, kajti nikogar ni, da ga osvobodi.«
12 Be not far from me, O God. Hurry, O my God, to help me.
Oh Bog, ne bodi daleč od mene. O moj Bog, podvizaj se zaradi moje pomoči.
13 May the accusers of my soul be ashamed and consumed; may those who seek my harm be covered with scorn and disgrace.
Naj bodo zbegani in uničeni tisti, ki so nasprotniki moji duši; naj bodo pokriti z grajo in nečastjo tisti, ki iščejo mojo bolečino.
14 But I will always hope and will praise You more and more.
Toda jaz bom nenehno upal in še bolj in bolj te bom hvalil.
15 My mouth will declare Your righteousness and Your salvation all day long, though I cannot know their full measure.
Moja usta bodo naznanjala tvojo pravičnost in tvojo rešitev duše ves dan, kajti ne poznam njihovih števil.
16 I will enter in the strength of the Lord GOD; I will proclaim Your righteousness—Yours alone.
Šel bom v moči Gospoda Boga. Omenjal bom tvojo pravičnost, namreč samo tvojo.
17 O God, You have taught me from my youth, and to this day I proclaim Your marvelous deeds.
Oh Bog, učil si me od moje mladosti in doslej sem oznanjal tvoja čudovita dela.
18 Even when I am old and gray, do not forsake me, O God, until I proclaim Your power to the next generation, Your might to all who are to come.
Tudi sedaj, ko sem star in sivolas, oh Bog, me ne zapusti, dokler ne pokažem tvoje moči temu rodu in tvojo oblast vsakemu, ki bo prišel.
19 Your righteousness reaches to the heavens, O God, You who have done great things. Who, O God, is like You?
Tudi tvoja pravičnost, oh Bog, je zelo visoka, ki si storil velike stvari. Oh Bog, kdo ti je podoben!
20 Though You have shown me many troubles and misfortunes, You will revive me once again. Even from the depths of the earth You will bring me back up.
Ti, ki si mi pokazal velike in boleče stiske, me boš ponovno oživil in ponovno privedel gor iz globin zemlje.
21 You will increase my honor and comfort me once again.
Povečal boš mojo veličino in me tolažil na vsaki strani.
22 So I will praise You with the harp for Your faithfulness, O my God; I will sing praise to You with the lyre, O Holy One of Israel.
Prav tako te bom hvalil s plunko, celó tvojo resnico, oh moj Bog. Tebi bom prepeval s harfo, oh ti, Sveti Izraelov.
23 When I sing praise to You my lips will shout for joy, along with my soul, which You have redeemed.
Moje ustnice se bodo silno veselile, kadar ti prepevam in moja duša, ki si jo odkupil.
24 My tongue will indeed proclaim Your righteousness all day long, for those who seek my harm are disgraced and confounded.
Tudi moj jezik bo ves dan govoril o tvoji pravičnosti, kajti zbegani so, ker so privedeni v sramoto [tisti], ki iščejo mojo bolečino.
