Psalms 61

1 Unto the end, in hymns, for David. Hear, O God, my supplication: be attentive to my prayer,

Načelniku godbe na strune, pesem Davidova. Sliši Bog, vpitje moje, ozri se v molitev mojo.

2 To thee have I cried from the ends of the earth: when my heart was in anguish, thou hast exalted me on a rock. Thou hast conducted me;

Od skrajnosti dežele te kličem, ko se pogreza srce moje; na skalo, ki bodi višja od mene, pelji me.

3 For thou hast been my hope; a tower of strength against the face of the enemy.

Ker bil si mi pribežališče, stolp krepak zoper sovražnika.

4 In thy tabernacle I shall dwell for ever: I shall be protected under the covert of thy wings.

Bival bodem v šatoru tvojem na veke; pribežal bodem pod peróti tvojih zatišje.

5 For thou, my God, hast heard my prayer: thou hast given an inheritance to them that fear thy name.

Ker ti, Bog, si poslušal obljube moje, dal si dedovino spoštujočim ime tvoje.

6 Thou wilt add days to the days of the king: his years even to generation and generation.

Dni dodaj dnevom kraljevim; leta njegova naj bodejo kakor mnogih rodov.

7 He abideth for ever in the sight of God: his mercy and truth who shall search?

Ostane naj vekomaj pred Bogom; milost in zvestobo pripravi, da naj ga varujeti.

8 So will I sing a psalm to thy name for ever and ever: that I may pay my vows from day to day.

Tako bodem prepeval tvojemu imenu večno, opravljajoč vsak dan obljube svoje.
