Psalms 141

1 I have cried to the, O Lord, hear me: hearken to my voice, when I cry to thee.

Psalm Davidov. O Gospod, kličem te, hiti k meni; čuj glas moj, ko te kličem.

2 Let my prayer be directed as incense in thy sight; the lifting up of my hands, as evening sacrifice.

Molitev moja pridi kakor kadilo pred te; povzdigovanje mojih rok kakor dar večerni.

3 Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth: and a door round about my lips.

Zloži Gospod, opazuj usta moja; straži karkoli izhaja z ustnic mojih.

4 Incline not my heart to evil words; to make excuses in sins. With men that work iniquity: and I will not communicate with the choicest of them.

Ne daj, da se srce moje nagne k hudobni reči, dela doprinašat po krivici z možmi, ki delajo krivico; tudi naj ne uživam njih slaščic.

5 The just shall correct me in mercy, and shall reprove me: but let not the oil of the sinner fatten my head. For my prayer also shall still be against the things with which they are well pleased:

Udari naj me nazaj pravični, milost bode, in posvari me, mazilo bode izvrstno; ne brani se glava moja; čim bolj, tem bolj bode: molitev moja v njih nesrečah.

6 Their judges falling upon the rock have been swallowed up. They shall hear my words, for they have prevailed:

Ali planejo dol raz skale njih sodniki; dasi umejo, da so govori moji prijetni.

7 As when the thickness of the earth is broken up upon the ground: Our bones are scattered by the side of hell. (Sheol h7585)

Kakor bi kdo razsekal in razklal zemljo, raztresejo se naše kosti, v groba žrelo. (Sheol h7585)

8 But o to thee, O Lord, Lord, are my eyes: in thee have I put my trust, take not away my soul.

Ko se v té, Gospod, ozirajo moje oči, k tebi pribegnem, ne zapústi duše moje.

9 Keep me from the snare, which they have laid for me, and from the stumblingblocks of them that work iniquity.

Reši me zadrge, katero so mi razpeli, in zank njih, ki delajo krivico.

10 The wicked shall fall in his net: I am alone until I pass.

Padejo naj v mreže svoje vsi krivični, jaz pa pojdem mimo.
