Psalms 108

1 A Song. A Psalm. Of David. O God, my heart is fixed; I will make songs and melody, even with my glory.

Oh Bog, moje srce je trdno; prepeval bom in dajal hvalo, celó s svojo slavo.

2 Give out your sounds, O corded instruments: the dawn will be awaking with my song.

Zbudita se, plunka in harfa; jaz sam se bom zgodaj prebudil.

3 I will give you praise, O Lord, among the peoples; I will make melody to you among the nations.

Hvalil te bom, oh Gospod, med ljudstvi in prepeval ti bom hvale med narodi.

4 For your mercy is higher than the heavens: and your unchanging faith than the clouds.

Kajti tvoje usmiljenje je veliko nad nebom in tvoja resnica sega do oblakov.

5 Be lifted up, O God, higher than the heavens; let your glory be over all the earth.

Bodi povišan, oh Bog, nad nebo in tvoja slava nad vso zemljo,

6 Let your right hand be stretched out for salvation, and give me an answer, so that your loved ones may be safe from danger.

da so tvoji ljubljeni lahko osvobojeni; reši s svojo desnico in mi odgovori.

7 This is the word of the holy God: I will be glad; I will make Shechem a heritage, measuring out the valley of Succoth.

Bog je spregovoril v svoji svetosti: »Veselil se bom in razdelil bom Sihem in odmeril Sukótsko dolino.

8 Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim is the strength of my head; Judah is my law-giver;

Gileád je moj, Manáse je moj, tudi Efrájim je moč moje glave, Juda je moj postavodajalec.

9 Moab is my washpot; on Edom is the resting-place of my shoe; over Philistia will I send out a glad cry.

Moáb je moj lonec za pranje, nad Edóm bom vrgel svoj čevelj, nad Filistejo bom slavil zmago.«

10 Who will take me into the strong town? who will be my guide into Edom?

Kdo me bo privedel v utrjeno mesto? Kdo me bo vodil v Edóm?

11 Have you not sent us away from you, O God? and you go not out with our armies.

Mar ne boš ti, oh Bog, ki si nas zavrgel? Ali ne boš ti, oh Bog, šel naprej z našimi vojskami?

12 Give us help in our trouble; for there is no help in man.

Daj nam pomoč iz stiske, kajti zaman je človeška pomoč.

13 With God we will do great things; for by him will our haters be crushed underfoot.

Z Bogom bomo delali hrabro, kajti on je ta, ki bo pomendral naše sovražnike.
