< Psalms 141 >

1 A Psalm. Of David. Lord, I have made my cry to you; come to me quickly; give ear to my voice, when it goes up to you.
Gospod, k tebi kličem, pohiti k meni; pazljivo prisluhni mojemu glasu, ko kličem k tebi.
2 Let my prayer be ordered before you like a sweet smell; and let the lifting up of my hands be like the evening offering.
Naj bo moja molitev postavljena pred teboj kakor kadilo in dvigovanje mojih rok kakor večerno žrtvovanje.
3 O Lord, keep a watch over my mouth; keep the door of my lips.
Postavi stražo, oh Gospod, pred moja usta; čuvaj vrata mojih ustnic.
4 Keep my heart from desiring any evil thing, or from taking part in the sins of the evil-doers with men who do wrong: and let me have no part in their good things.
Mojega srca ne nagni h kakršnikoli zli stvari, da izvajam dela z ljudmi, ki počnejo krivičnost; in naj ne jem od njihovih slaščic.
5 Let the upright give me punishment; and let the god-fearing man put me in the right way; but I will not let the oil of sinners come on my head: when they do evil I will give myself to prayer.
Naj me pravični udari, to bo prijaznost in naj me graja; to bo odlično olje, ki ne bo zlomilo moje glave, ker bo vendar v njihovih katastrofah tudi moja molitev.
6 When destruction comes to their judges by the side of the rock, they will give ear to my words, for they are sweet.
Kadar so njihovi sodniki premagani na kamnitih krajih, bodo slišali moje besede, kajti prijetne so.
7 Our bones are broken up at the mouth of the underworld, as the earth is broken by the plough. (Sheol h7585)
Naše kosti so razkropljene ob ustih groba, kakor kadar nekdo seka in cepi les na zemlji. (Sheol h7585)
8 But my eyes are turned to you, O Lord God: my hope is in you; let not my soul be given up to death.
Toda moje oči so k tebi, oh Bog, Gospod; v tebi je moje trdno upanje, moje duše ne pusti zapuščene.
9 Keep me from the net which they have put down for me, and from the designs of the workers of evil.
Varuj me pred zankami, ki so jih položili zame in [pred] pastmi delavcev krivičnosti.
10 Let the sinners be taken in the nets which they themselves have put down, while I go free.
Naj zlobni padejo v svoje lastne mreže, medtem ko jaz istočasno pobegnem.
