Psalms 56

1 To him that excelleth. A Psalme of David on Michtam, concerning the dumme doue in a farre countrey, when the Philistims tooke him in Gath. Be mercifull vnto me, O God, for man would swallow me vp: he fighteth continually and vexeth me.

Načelniku godbe, o duši, ki silo trpi od tujcev krdela, odlična pesem Davidova, ko so ga prijeli Filistejci v Gatu. Milosten mi bodi, Bog, ker rohneč me preganja človek, ves dan me stiska oblegovatelj.

2 Mine enemies would dayly swallowe mee vp: for many fight against me, O thou most High.

Rohné zalezovalci moji vés dan, ker mnogo jih je; z višave naj mi pomagajo borilci.

3 When I was afrayd, I trusted in thee.

Ko se bodem bal, zaupal bodem v tebe.

4 I will reioyce in God, because of his word, I trust in God, and will not feare what flesh can doe vnto me.

V Bogu bodem hvalil besedo njegovo; v Boga bodem zaupal, ne bodem se bal: Kaj naj bi mi storilo meso?

5 Mine owne wordes grieue me dayly: all their thoughtes are against me to doe me hurt.

Ves dan žalijo mojo stvar; zoper mene merijo vse njih misli v hudo.

6 They gather together, and keepe them selues close: they marke my steps, because they waite for my soule.

Zbirajo, skrivajo se oni; na moj sled prežé, kakor ki iščejo življenje moje.

7 They thinke they shall escape by iniquitie: O God, cast these people downe in thine anger.

Poleg krivičnosti jim stóri, v jezi pahni ljudstva, Bog.

8 Thou hast counted my wandrings: put my teares into thy bottel: are they not in thy register?

Ti imaš sešteto tavanje moje; v meh svoj deni vsako solzo mojo, ali bi jih ne imel seštetih?

9 When I cry, then mine enemies shall turne backe: this I know, for God is with me.

Tedaj se povrnejo sovražniki moji nazaj; tisti dan, ko bodem vpil: To vém, da mi bode Bog na strani.

10 I will reioyce in God because of his worde: in the Lord wil I reioyce because of his worde.

V Bogu bodem hvalil besedo, v Gospodu hvalil besedo.

11 In God doe I trust: I will not be afrayd what man can doe vnto me.

V Boga zaupam, ne bodem se bal; kaj bi mi storil človek?

12 Thy vowes are vpon me, O God: I will render prayses vnto thee.

Z menoj bodejo, o Bog, obljube tvoje; zahvaljeval se bodem tebi.

13 For thou hast deliuered my soule from death, and also my feete from falling, that I may walke before God in the light of the liuing.

Ker dušo mojo otimaš smrti; ali bi ne rešil nóg mojih padca? da neprestano hodim pred Bogom v tega življenja luči.
