< Psalms 116 >
1 I love that the LORD should hear my voice and my supplications.
Dovolj mi je, da Gospod usliši glas moj, molitve moje.
2 Because He hath inclined His ear unto me, therefore will I call upon Him all my days.
Ker je uho svoje nagnil meni, zatorej ga bodem klical svoje dni.
3 The cords of death compassed me, and the straits of the nether-world got hold upon me; I found trouble and sorrow. (Sheol )
Ko me obdajajo smrtne bolečine, in me obhajajo grobne stiske; nadlogo in žalost nahajam. (Sheol )
4 But I called upon the name of the LORD: 'I beseech thee, O LORD, deliver my soul.'
Če kličem ime Gospodovo, govoreč: "Rotim te, Gospod, reši dušo mojo!"
5 Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; yea, our God is compassionate.
Milosten je Gospod, in pravičen, Bog naš, pravim, usmiljen.
6 The LORD preserveth the simple; I was brought low, and He saved me.
Preproste rešuje Gospod; ko sem ponižan, prinese mi blaginjo.
7 Return, O my soul, unto Thy rest; for the LORD hath dealt bountifully with thee.
Povrni se v pokoj svoj, duša moja, ker Gospod je dobrotljiv tebi.
8 For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from stumbling.
Ker si otél mene samega smrti, oči moje sólz, nogo mojo padca,
9 I shall walk before the LORD in the lands of the living.
Neprestano bodem hodil pred Gospodom, v krajih živečih.
10 I trusted even when I spoke: 'I am greatly afflicted.'
Veroval sem, ko sem hotel to govoriti; jaz sem bil aboten čez mero.
11 I said in my haste: 'All men are liars.'
Jaz sem rekel hiteč: Vsak človek je lažnjiv.
12 How can I repay unto the LORD all His bountiful dealings toward me?
Kaj naj povrnem Gospodu? Vse dobrote njegove me premagujejo.
13 I will lift up the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the LORD.
Čašo vse blaginje bodem povzdignil in slavil ime Gospodovo,
14 My vows will I pay unto the LORD, yea, in the presence of all His people.
Obljube svoje opravljajoč Gospodu, skôraj pred vsem ljudstvom njegovim.
15 Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of His saints.
Draga je pred obličjem Gospodovim smrt njih, katerim izkazuje milost.
16 I beseech Thee, O LORD, for I am Thy servant; I am Thy servant, the son of Thy handmaid; Thou hast loosed my bands.
Prosim, Gospod, ko sem jaz hlapec tvoj, hlapec tvoj sem, dekle tvoje sin; raztrgal si vezí moje:
17 I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call upon the name of the LORD.
Tebi naj darujem hvalno daritev, in slavim ime Gospodovo.
18 I will pay my vows unto the LORD, yea, in the presence of all His people;
Obljube svoje bodem opravljal Gospodu skoraj pred vsem ljudstvom njegovim;
19 In the courts of the LORD'S house, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Hallelujah.
V vežah hiše Gospodove, sredi tebe, Jeruzalem. Aleluja!
