< Psalms 54 >
1 Unto the end, In verses, understanding for David. When the men of Ziph had come and said to Saul: Is not David hidden with us? Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me in thy strength.
Načelniku godbe na strune; pesem Davidova, ukovita. Ko so prišli Zifejci in rekli Savlu: Ali ne tiči David pri nas? Bog, zavoljo imena svojega reši me, in po kreposti svoji potegni se zame.
2 O God, hear my prayer: give ear to the words of my mouth.
Bog, čuj molitev mojo, uho nagni besedam mojih ust.
3 For strangers have risen up against me; and the mighty have sought after my soul: and they have not set God before their eyes.
Ker tujci spenjajo se proti meni in silovitniki iščejo življenje moje; Boga nimajo pred očmi.
4 For behold God is my helper: and the Lord is the protector of my soul.
Glej, Bog mi pomaga, Gospod je med njimi, ki podpirajo življenje moje.
5 Turn back the evils upon my enemies; and cut them off in thy truth.
Sovražnikom mojim vrni tisto zlo, po resničnosti svoji jih pokončaj.
6 I will freely sacrifice to thee, and will give praise, O God, to thy name: because it is good:
Obilo ti bodem daroval; slavil bodem ime tvoje, Gospod, ker je dobro.
7 For thou hast delivered me out of all trouble: and my eye hath looked down upon my enemies.
Ker reši me vsake stiske, in sovražnike moje gleda moje oko.
