Psalms 3
1 A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son. LORD, how many are mine adversaries become! Many are they that rise up against me.
Psalm Davidov, ko je bežal pred Absalomom, sinom svojim. Gospod, koliko je sovražnikov mojih, koliko jih vstaja proti meni!
2 Many there are that say of my soul: 'There is no salvation for him in God.' (Selah)
Koliko jih govori za dušo mojo: Ni je pomoči njej v Bogu nobene.
3 But thou, O LORD, art a shield about me; my glory, and the lifter up of my head.
Ti pa, Gospod, ščit si meni, slava moja, in glavo mojo vzdiguješ.
4 With my voice I call unto the LORD, and He answereth me out of His holy mountain. (Selah)
Z glasom svojim vpijočemu v Gospoda odgovoril mi je z gore svetosti svoje.
5 I lay me down, and I sleep; I awake, for the LORD sustaineth me.
Jaz sem ležal in spal, zbudil sem se, ker Gospod me podpira.
6 I am not afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about.
Ne bodem se bal ljudstva tisočin, katere bodo okrog razpostavili proti meni.
7 Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God; for Thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek, Thou hast broken the teeth of the wicked.
Vstani, Gospod; reši me, moj Bog, ki si udaril vse sovražnike moje po čeljusti, zobe zdrobil krivičnim.
8 Salvation belongeth unto the LORD; Thy blessing be upon Thy people. (Selah)
Gospodovo je rešenje; nad ljudstvom tvojim blagoslov tvoj!
