Psalms 35
1 Plead my cause, O LORD, with them that strive with me: fight against them that fight against me.
Pesem Davidova. Bojuj se, Gospod, zoper njé, ki se bojujejo z menoj; napadi jih, ki napadajo mene.
2 Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for my help.
Zgrabi ščit veliki ali mali, in vstani v mojo pomoč:
3 Draw out also the spear, and stop the way against them that persecute me: say to my soul, I am your salvation.
In potegni sulico, in prestrezi njé, ki me preganjajo: reci duši moji: Blaginja sem tvoja.
4 Let them be confounded and put to shame that seek after my soul: let them be turned back and brought to confusion that devise my hurt.
Osramoté se naj in z rudečico oblijó, kateri iščejo duše moje: nazaj naj se zapodé in zarudé, kateri mi nameravajo hudo.
5 Let them be as chaff before the wind: and let the angel of the LORD chase them.
Bodejo naj kakor pleve pred vetrom, ko ga zažene angelj Gospodov.
6 Let their way be dark and slippery: and let the angel of the LORD persecute them.
Temna bodi njih pot in prepolzka, in angelj Gospodov naj jih preganja.
7 For without cause have they hid for me their net in a pit, which without cause they have dig for my soul.
Ker po krivem mi skrivajo v jami mrežo svojo, po krivem kopljejo jamo duši moji.
8 Let destruction come on him at unawares; and let his net that he has hid catch himself: into that very destruction let him fall.
Pride naj mu, da ne bode vedel, poguba, da ga vjame mreža njegova, katero skriva: v pogubo naj pade vanjo.
9 And my soul shall be joyful in the LORD: it shall rejoice in his salvation.
Tako naj se duša moja raduje v Gospodu, veseli se naj v blaginji njegovi.
10 All my bones shall say, LORD, who is like to you, which deliver the poor from him that is too strong for him, yes, the poor and the needy from him that spoils him?
Vse kosti moje naj govoré: Gospod, kdo je tebi enak? Siromaka otimaš iz rok močnejega od njega; siromaka, pravim, in ubožca iz rok njega, ki ga pleni?
11 False witnesses did rise up; they laid to my charge things that I knew not.
Priče vstajajo krivične; česar si nisem v svesti, terjajo od mene.
12 They rewarded me evil for good to the spoiling of my soul.
Hudo mi vračajo za dobro, zapuščenost duši moji.
13 But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth: I humbled my soul with fasting; and my prayer returned into my own bosom.
In vendar sem jaz, ko so bili bolni, v raševini za obleko, s postom pokoril dušo svojo, in molitev moja se je vračala v nedrije moje.
14 I behaved myself as though he had been my friend or brother: I bowed down heavily, as one that mourns for his mother.
Kakor k bližnjemu, kakor k bratu sem hodéval neprestano, kakor žalujoč po materi hodil sem sključen v črni obleki.
15 But in my adversity they rejoiced, and gathered themselves together: yes, the attackers gathered themselves together against me, and I knew it not; they did tear me, and ceased not:
Ko pa pešam, zbirajo se in se radujejo; zbirajo se pri meni in se plazijo, da ne čutim; parajo obleko, in ne molčé:
16 With hypocritical mockers in feasts, they gnashed on me with their teeth.
Med igralci šaljivci šegavi; sè svojimi zobmí režé proti meni.
17 Lord, how long will you look on? rescue my soul from their destructions, my darling from the lions.
Gospod, doklej bodeš gledal? Reši dušo mojo njih pogube, mladih levov edino mojo.
18 I will give you thanks in the great congregation: I will praise you among much people.
Slavil te bodem v velikem zboru, med ljudstvom obilim bodem te hvalil.
19 Let not them that are my enemies wrongfully rejoice over me: neither let them wink with the eye that hate me without a cause.
Naj se ne radujejo nad menoj, kateri so mi neprijatelji iz krivih vzrokov; kateri me sovražijo po krivem, naj ne mežikajo z očesom.
20 For they speak not peace: but they devise deceitful matters against them that are quiet in the land.
Mirú namreč ne govoré, temuč zoper pokojne v deželi izmišljajo najhujše zvijače.
21 Yes, they opened their mouth wide against me, and said, Aha, aha, our eye has seen it.
In proti meni režé, govoreč: Prav, prav, oko naše vidi!
22 This you have seen, O LORD: keep not silence: O Lord, be not far from me.
Vidiš, Gospod, ne mólči; Gospod, ne bivaj daleč od mene.
23 Stir up yourself, and awake to my judgment, even to my cause, my God and my Lord.
Zbúdi se in vstani na sodbo mojo; Bog moj in Gospod moj, na pravdo mojo.
24 Judge me, O LORD my God, according to your righteousness; and let them not rejoice over me.
Sodi me po pravici svoji, Gospod Bog moj, in naj ne radujejo se nad mano.
25 Let them not say in their hearts, Ah, so would we have it: let them not say, We have swallowed him up.
Naj ne govoré v srci svojem: Prav, duša naša; ne govoré naj: Pogoltnili smo ga.
26 Let them be ashamed and brought to confusion together that rejoice at my hurt: let them be clothed with shame and dishonor that magnify themselves against me.
Osramoté se naj in zarudé vkup, ker se veselé nesreče moje; sè sramoto naj se ogrnejo in nečastjo, kateri se povzdigujejo proti meni.
27 Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favor my righteous cause: yes, let them say continually, Let the LORD be magnified, which has pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.
Prepevali bodejo in se radovali, kateri se veselé pravice moje, in govorili bodejo vedno: Poveličan Gospod, ki se veseli mirú svojega hlapca.
28 And my tongue shall speak of your righteousness and of your praise all the day long.
In jezik moj bode oznanjal pravičnost tvojo, ves dan hvalo tvojo.
