Psalms 13

1 For the music director. A psalm of David. How long, Lord, are you going to forget me? Forever? How long will you turn away from me?

Doklej me boš pozabljal, oh Gospod? Na veke? Doklej boš svoj obraz skrival pred menoj?

2 How long must I be in inner turmoil, feeling sad all day long? How long will my enemy be victorious over me?

Doklej se bom posvetoval v svoji duši, imel vsak dan bridkost v svojem srcu? Doklej se bo moj sovražnik poviševal nad menoj?

3 Think about this, and answer me, Lord my God. Give me back my strength, otherwise I'm going to die,

Preudari in poslušaj me, oh Gospod, moj Bog. Razsvetli moje oči, da ne zaspim spanja smrti,

4 and my enemy will say, “I defeated him!” and my opponents will celebrate my downfall.

da ne bi moj sovražnik rekel: »Prevladal sem proti njemu« in da se tisti, ki me mučijo, ne veselijo, ko sem omajan.

5 But I trust in your never-failing love, I will be happy because you save me.

Toda jaz sem zaupal v tvoje usmiljenje; moje srce se bo veselilo v tvoji rešitvi duše.

6 I will sing to the Lord because he has treated me with such generosity!

Prepeval bom Gospodu, ker je radodarno ravnal z menoj.
