Psalms 13

1 To the chief music-maker. A Psalm. Of David. Will you for ever put me out of your memory, O Lord? will your face for ever be turned away from me?

Doklej me boš pozabljal, oh Gospod? Na veke? Doklej boš svoj obraz skrival pred menoj?

2 How long is my soul to be in doubt, with sorrow in my heart all the day? how long will he who is against me be given power over me?

Doklej se bom posvetoval v svoji duši, imel vsak dan bridkost v svojem srcu? Doklej se bo moj sovražnik poviševal nad menoj?

3 Let my voice come before you, and give me an answer, O Lord my God; let your light be shining on me, so that the sleep of death may not overtake me;

Preudari in poslušaj me, oh Gospod, moj Bog. Razsvetli moje oči, da ne zaspim spanja smrti,

4 And he who is against me may not say, I have overcome him; and those who are troubling me may not be glad when I am moved.

da ne bi moj sovražnik rekel: »Prevladal sem proti njemu« in da se tisti, ki me mučijo, ne veselijo, ko sem omajan.

5 But I have had faith in your mercy; my heart will be glad in your salvation.

Toda jaz sem zaupal v tvoje usmiljenje; moje srce se bo veselilo v tvoji rešitvi duše.

6 I will make a song to the Lord, because he has given me my reward.

Prepeval bom Gospodu, ker je radodarno ravnal z menoj.
