< Psalms 20 >
1 To him that excelleth. A Psalme of Dauid. The Lord heare thee in the day of trouble: the name of ye God of Iaakob defend thee:
Gospod te sliši na dan stiske, ime Jakobovega Boga te brani,
2 Send thee helpe from the Sanctuarie, and strengthen thee out of Zion.
pošlje ti pomoč iz svetišča in te okrepi s Siona,
3 Let him remember all thine offerings, and turne thy burnt offerings into asshes. (Selah)
spominja se vseh tvojih daritev in sprejema tvojo žgalno daritev. (Sela)
4 And graunt thee according to thine heart, and fulfill all thy purpose:
Usliši te glede na tvoje lastno srce in izpolni vso tvojo namero.
5 That we may reioyce in thy saluation, and set vp the banner in the Name of our God, when the Lord shall performe all thy petitions.
Veselili se bomo v tvoji rešitvi duše in svoje prapore bomo postavili v imenu svojega Boga. Gospod izpolnjuje vse tvoje prošnje.
6 Now know I that the Lord will helpe his anointed, and will heare him from his Sanctuarie, by the mightie helpe of his right hand.
Sedaj vem, da Gospod rešuje svojega maziljenca; iz svojih svetih nebes ga bo uslišal z rešujočo močjo svoje desnice.
7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the Name of ye Lord our God.
Nekateri zaupajo v bojne vozove, nekateri pa v konje, toda mi se bomo spominjali imena Gospoda, svojega Boga.
8 They are brought downe and fallen, but we are risen, and stand vpright.
Oni so ponižani in padli, toda mi vstanemo in stojimo pokončno.
9 Saue Lord: let the King heare vs in the day that we call.
Reši, Gospod. Naj nas sliši kralj, ko kličemo.
