< Psalms 139 >
1 Lord, thou hast proved me, and known me:
Načelniku godbe: psalm Davidov. Gospod, preiskuješ me in spoznavaš.
2 Thou hast know my sitting down, and my rising up.
Ti poznavaš sedenje moje in vstajanje moje; misel mojo umeš od daleč.
3 Thou hast understood my thoughts afar off: my path and my line thou hast searched out.
Hojo mojo in ležo mojo obsezaš, in znana so ti vsa pota moja.
4 And thou hast foreseen all my ways: for there is no speech in my tongue.
Ko ni še govor na jeziku mojem, glej, Gospod, poznaš ga vsega.
5 Behold, O Lord, thou hast known all things, the last and those of old: thou hast formed me, and hast laid thy hand upon me.
Zadaj in spredaj me obdajaš, in name pokladaš roko svojo.
6 Thy knowledge is become wonderful to me: it is high, and I cannot reach to it.
Prečudovita je vednost tvoja, da bi te varal; visoka je, ne morem je preseči.
7 Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy face?
Kam naj grem pred duhom tvojim, ali kam naj bežim pred tvojim obličjem?
8 If I ascend into heaven, thou art there: if I descend into hell, thou art present. (Sheol )
Ko bi stopil na nebesa, tam si; ali bi ležišče izbral v grobu, glej tu si. (Sheol )
9 If I take my wings early in the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea:
Ko bi si vzel zarije peroti, da bi prebival na pokrajini morja,
10 Even there also shall thy hand lead me: and thy right hand shall hold me.
Tudi tja bi me spremljala tvoja roka, in zgrabila bi me desnica tvoja.
11 And I said: Perhaps darkness shall cover me: and night shall be my light in my pleasures.
Ko bi pa rekel: Temé me bodo vsaj pokrile kakor z mrakom; vendar noč je svetloba okolo mene.
12 But darkness shall not be dark to thee, and night shall be light as day: the darkness thereof, and the light thereof are alike to thee.
Tudi temé ne morejo tako omračiti, da bi ti ne videl skozi; ampak noč razsvetljuje kakor dan, tako so temé kakor luč.
13 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast protected me from my mother’s womb.
Ti namreč imaš v lasti ledvice moje; pokrival si me v telesu matere moje.
14 I will praise thee, for thou art fearfully magnified: wonderful are thy works, and my soul knoweth right well.
Slavim te zato, ker ogledujoč tista dela strmim, čudovita dela tvoja predobro pozna srce moje.
15 My bone is not hidden from thee, which thou hast made in secret: and my substance in the lower parts of the earth.
Skrita ni tebi moja moč, odkar sem ustvarjen bil na skrivnem; umetno narejen, kakor v zemlje globočinah.
16 Thy eyes did see my imperfect being, and in thy book all shall be written: days shall be formed, and no one in them.
Testo moje vidijo tvoje oči, in v knjigi tvoji je pisano vse to; od kar se je narejalo, ko ni bilo še nič tega.
17 But to me thy friends, O God, are made exceedingly honourable: their principality is exceedingly strengthened.
Zatorej pri meni, o kako dražestne so misli tvoje, o Bog mogočni! Kako preobila njih števila!
18 I will number them, and they shall be multiplied above the sand: I rose up and am still with thee.
Našteval bi jih, a več jih je ko peska, čujem naj še s teboj.
19 If thou wilt kill the wicked, O God: ye men of blood, depart from me:
O da bi pokončal, o Bog, krivičnega; in može krvoločne, rekoč: Poberite se izpred mene.
20 Because you say in thought: They shall receive thy cities in vain.
Kateri zoper tebe govoré pregrešno; kateri povzdigujejo nično sovražnike tvoje.
21 Have I not hated them, O Lord, that hated thee: and pine away because of thy enemies?
Ali ne sovražim, o Gospod, sovražnikov tvojih, in se ne mučim v zaničevanji do njih, ki se spenjajo zoper tebe?
22 I have hated them with a perfect hatred: and they are become enemies to me.
S popolnim sovraštvom jih sovražim; za neprijatelje so meni.
23 Prove me, O God, and know my heart: examine me, and know my paths.
Preiskuj me, Bog mogočni, in spoznaj srce moje; izkusi me in spoznaj misli moje.
24 And see if there be in me the way of iniquity: and lead me in the eternal way.
In glej, hodim li po potu, tebi nadležnem; in vodi me po večnem potu.
