Psalms 64

1 For the music director. A psalm of David. God, please listen to my complaint. Protect me because my enemies scare me.

Načelniku godbe, psalm Davidov. Čuj, o Bog, glas moj, ko premišljujem; strahu sovražnikovega varuj življenje moje.

2 Shelter me from the plots of the wicked, from this evil mob.

Skrivaj me skrivnemu naklepu hudobnih, ropotanju njih, ki delajo krivico:

3 What they say cuts like swords; they fire off poisonous words like arrows.

Ki brusijo kakor meč jezik svoj, napenjajo kakor pušico svojo bridko besedo.

4 They shoot from their hiding places at innocent people—doing this without warning, not afraid of being caught.

S kopjem napadajo poštenjaka iz zakotja; nenadoma ga napadajo s kopjem in se ne bojé.

5 They encourage one another to do evil, planning how to secretly trap people, telling themselves, “Nobody will notice.”

Potrjujejo si reč hudobno; o skrivanji zank govoré; pravijo: Kdo bi jih videl?

6 They plot wicked things. “What a great plan we've created!” they say. There are no limits to the depths to which human minds and thoughts can sink.

Preiskujejo krivice; oslabeli smo po tem, kar so tako zvito preiskali; tako globoko je osrčje moža in srce.

7 But God will shoot them with arrows; all of a sudden they will be wounded.

Ali ko jih bode Bog napadel s kopjem, pušica nagla bodejo njih udarci.

8 What they themselves say will trip them up; people who see them will mock them, shaking their heads at them.

In storili bodejo, da sè samim jezikom svojim udarijo sebe; razkropljeni se bodejo spustili v beg, kdorkoli jih bode videl.

9 Then everyone will be frightened. They will say that this is the work of God, and they will think about what he has done.

Katerikoli pa ljudjé se bojé, oznanjali bodo delo Božje in dejanje njegovo stavili pred óči.

10 Those who are right with the Lord will be happy in him, they will go to him for protection. Those who live right will praise him.

Veselil se bode pravični v Gospodu, in pribežal k njemu; ponašali se bodo vsi, ki so pravega srca.
