Psalms 61

1 To the chief Musician. On a stringed instrument. [A Psalm] of David. Hear, O God, my cry; attend unto my prayer.

Sliši moj klic, oh Bog, prisluhni moji molitvi.

2 From the end of the earth will I call unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: thou wilt lead me on to a rock which is too high for me.

Od konca zemlje bom klical k tebi, ko je moje srce preplavljeno. Vôdi me k skali, ki je višja kakor jaz.

3 For thou hast been a refuge for me, a strong tower from before the enemy.

Kajti zame si bil zatočišče in močna trdnjava pred sovražnikom.

4 I will sojourn in thy tent for ever; I will take refuge in the covert of thy wings. (Selah)

V tvojem šotorskem svetišču bom ostal na veke. Zaupal bom v skrivališče tvojih peruti. (Sela)

5 For thou, O God, hast heard my vows; thou hast given [me] the inheritance of those that fear thy name.

Kajti ti, oh Bog, si uslišal moje zaobljube; dal si mi dediščino tistih, ki se bojijo tvojega imena.

6 Thou wilt add days to the days of the king: his years shall be as many generations.

Kralju boš podaljšal življenje in njegova leta kakor mnoge rodove.

7 He shall abide before God for ever: bestow loving-kindness and truth, that they may preserve him.

Pred Bogom bo on ostal na veke. O pripravi usmiljenje in resnico, ki ga lahko varuje.

8 So will I sing forth thy name for ever, performing my vows from day to day.

Tako bom na veke prepeval hvalo tvojemu imenu, da bom lahko dnevno opravljal svoje zaobljube.
