< Psalms 30 >
1 A Psalm. A Song at the blessing of the House. Of David. I will give you praise and honour, O Lord, because through you I have been lifted up; you have not given my haters cause to be glad over me.
Povzdigoval te bom, oh Gospod, kajti dvignil si me in nisi storil, da se moji nasprotniki veselijo nad menoj.
2 O Lord my God, I sent up my cry to you, and you have made me well.
Oh Gospod, moj Bog, klical sem k tebi in ti si me ozdravil.
3 O Lord, you have made my soul come again from the underworld: you have given me life and kept me from going down among the dead. (Sheol )
Oh Gospod, mojo dušo si privedel iz groba. Ohranil si me živega, da ne bi šel dol v jamo. (Sheol )
4 Make songs to the Lord, O you saints of his, and give praise to his holy name.
Prepevajte Gospodu, oh vi njegovi sveti in zahvaljujte se ob spominu njegove svetosti.
5 For his wrath is only for a minute; in his grace there is life; weeping may be for a night, but joy comes in the morning.
Kajti njegova jeza ostaja samo trenutek, v njegovi naklonjenosti je življenje. Jokanje lahko vztraja za [eno] noč, toda radost prihaja zjutraj.
6 When things went well for me I said, I will never be moved.
V svojem uspevanju sem rekel: »Nikoli ne bom omajan.«
7 Lord, by your grace you have kept my mountain strong: when your face was turned from me I was troubled.
Gospod, po svoji naklonjenosti si storil, da moja gora trdno stoji. Skril si svoje obličje in sem bil zaskrbljen.
8 My voice went up to you, O Lord; I made my prayer to the Lord.
K tebi sem klical, oh Gospod in h Gospodu sem naredil ponižno prošnjo.
9 What profit is there in my blood if I go down into the underworld? will the dust give you praise, or be a witness to your help?
»Kakšna korist je v moji krvi, ko pojdem dol v jamo? Mar te bo hvalil prah? Bo ta oznanjal tvojo resnico?
10 Give ear to me, O Lord, and have mercy on me: Lord, be my helper.
Prisluhni, oh Gospod in usmili se me. Gospod, bodi moj pomočnik.«
11 By you my sorrow is turned into dancing; you have taken away my clothing of grief, and given me robes of joy;
Ti si zame obrnil moje žalovanje v ples. Odložil si mojo vrečevino in me opasal z veseljem,
12 So that my glory may make songs of praise to you and not be quiet. O Lord my God, I will give you praise for ever.
z namenom, da lahko moja slava tebi poje hvalnico in ne bo molčeča. Oh Gospod, moj Bog, zahvaljeval se ti bom na veke.
