< Psalms 103 >
1 Of David. Give praise to the Lord, O my soul; let everything in me give praise to his holy name.
Blagoslavljaj Gospoda, oh moja duša, in vse, kar je znotraj mene, blagoslavljaj njegovo sveto ime.
2 Give praise to the Lord, O my soul; let not all his blessings go from your memory.
Blagoslavljaj Gospoda, oh moja duša in ne pozabi vseh dejanj njega,
3 He has forgiveness for all your sins; he takes away all your diseases;
ki odpušča vse tvoje krivičnosti, ki ozdravlja vse tvoje bolezni,
4 He keeps back your life from destruction, crowning you with mercy and grace.
ki odkupuje tvoje življenje pred uničenjem, ki te krona z ljubečo skrbnostjo in nežnimi usmiljenji,
5 He makes your mouth full of good things, so that your strength is made new again like the eagle's.
ki tvoja usta nasičuje z dobrimi stvarmi, tako da se tvoja mladost obnavlja kakor orlova.
6 The Lord gives decisions in righteousness for all who are in trouble.
Gospod izvršuje pravičnost in sodbo za vse, ki so zatirani.
7 He gave knowledge of his way to Moses, and made his acts clear to the children of Israel.
Svoje poti je dal spoznati Mojzesu, svoja dela Izraelovim otrokom.
8 The Lord is kind and full of pity, not quickly made angry, but ever ready to have mercy.
Gospod je usmiljen in milostljiv, počasen za jezo in obilen v usmiljenju.
9 His feeling will no longer be bitter; he will not keep his wrath for ever.
Ne bo se vedno pričkal niti svoje jeze ne bo držal na veke.
10 He has not given us the punishment for our sins, or the reward of our wrongdoing.
Z nami ni ravnal po naših grehih niti nas ni nagrajeval glede na naše krivičnosti.
11 For as the heaven is high over the earth, so great is his mercy to his worshippers.
Kajti kakor je nebo visoko nad zemljo, tako veliko je njegovo usmiljenje do tistih, ki se ga bojijo.
12 As far as the east is from the west, so far has he put our sins from us.
Kolikor daleč je vzhod od zahoda, tako daleč odstranja naše prestopke od nas.
13 As a father has pity on his children, so the Lord has pity on his worshippers.
Kakor se oče usmili svojih otrok, tako se Gospod usmili teh, ki se ga bojijo.
14 For he has knowledge of our feeble frame; he sees that we are only dust.
Kajti pozna naš sestav; spominja se, da smo prah.
15 As for man, his days are as grass: his beautiful growth is like the flower of the field.
Glede človeka, so njegovi dnevi kakor trava; kakor cvetica polja, tako cveti.
16 The wind goes over it and it is gone; and its place sees it no longer.
Kajti čeznjo gre veter in izgine in njen kraj je ne bo več poznal.
17 But the mercy of the Lord is eternal for his worshippers, and their children's children will see his righteousness;
Toda Gospodovo usmiljenje je od večnosti do večnosti na tistih, ki se ga bojijo in njegova pravičnost do otrok otrok,
18 If they keep his agreement, and have his laws in mind to do them.
tistim, ki se držijo njegove zaveze in tistim, ki se spominjajo njegovih zapovedi, da jih izpolnjujejo.
19 The Lord has made ready his high seat in the heavens; his kingdom is ruling over all.
Gospod je pripravil svoj prestol v nebesih in njegovo kraljestvo vlada nad vsemi.
20 Give praise to the Lord, you his angels, who are great in strength, doing his orders, and waiting for his voice.
Blagoslavljajte Gospoda, vi njegovi angeli, ki se odlikujete v moči, ki izpolnjujete njegove zapovedi s poslušanjem glasu njegove besede.
21 Give praise to the Lord, all you his armies; and you his servants who do his pleasure.
Blagoslavljajte Gospoda, vse ve njegove vojske, vi njegovi služabniki, ki izpolnjujete njegovo željo.
22 Give praise to the Lord, all his works, in all places under his rule: give praise to the Lord, O my soul.
Blagoslavljajte Gospoda, vsa njegova dela na vseh krajih njegovega gospostva. Blagoslavljaj Gospoda, oh moja duša.
