Psalms 71
1 In you, O LORD, do I put my trust: let me never be put to confusion.
Vate, oh Gospod, polagam svoje trdno upanje. Naj ne bom nikoli postavljen v zadrego.
2 Deliver me in your righteousness, and cause me to escape: incline your ear to me, and save me.
Osvobodi me v svoji pravičnosti in mi povzroči, da pobegnem. Nagni k meni svoje uho in me reši.
3 Be you my strong habitation, where I may continually resort: you have given commandment to save me; for you are my rock and my fortress.
Bodi moje močno prebivališče, kamor se bom lahko nenehno zatekal. Dal si zapoved, da me rešiš, kajti ti si moja skala in moja trdnjava.
4 Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.
Osvobodi me, oh moj Bog, iz roke zlobnega, iz roke nepravičnega in krutega človeka.
5 For you are my hope, O Lord GOD: you are my trust from my youth.
Kajti ti si moje upanje, oh Gospod Bog, ti si moje trdno zaupanje od moje mladosti.
6 By you have I been held up from the womb: you are he that took me out of my mother’s bowels: my praise shall be continually of you.
S teboj sem bil podpiran od maternice. Ti si tisti, ki me je vzel iz notranjosti moje matere. O tebi bo nenehno moja hvala.
7 I am as a wonder to many; but you are my strong refuge.
Mnogim sem kakor čudež, toda ti si moje močno zatočišče.
8 Let my mouth be filled with your praise and with your honor all the day.
Naj bodo moja usta napolnjena s tvojo hvalo in s tvojo častjo ves dan.
9 Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength fails.
Ne zavrzi me v času visoke starosti, ne zapusti me, ko oslabi moja moč.
10 For my enemies speak against me; and they that lay wait for my soul take counsel together,
Kajti moji sovražniki govorijo zoper mene in tisti, ki prežijo na mojo dušo, se skupaj posvetujejo,
11 Saying, God has forsaken him: persecute and take him; for there is none to deliver him.
rekoč: »Bog ga je zapustil. Preganjajte in zgrabite ga, kajti nikogar ni, da ga osvobodi.«
12 O God, be not far from me: O my God, make haste for my help.
Oh Bog, ne bodi daleč od mene. O moj Bog, podvizaj se zaradi moje pomoči.
13 Let them be confounded and consumed that are adversaries to my soul; let them be covered with reproach and dishonor that seek my hurt.
Naj bodo zbegani in uničeni tisti, ki so nasprotniki moji duši; naj bodo pokriti z grajo in nečastjo tisti, ki iščejo mojo bolečino.
14 But I will hope continually, and will yet praise you more and more.
Toda jaz bom nenehno upal in še bolj in bolj te bom hvalil.
15 My mouth shall show forth your righteousness and your salvation all the day; for I know not the numbers thereof.
Moja usta bodo naznanjala tvojo pravičnost in tvojo rešitev duše ves dan, kajti ne poznam njihovih števil.
16 I will go in the strength of the Lord GOD: I will make mention of your righteousness, even of your only.
Šel bom v moči Gospoda Boga. Omenjal bom tvojo pravičnost, namreč samo tvojo.
17 O God, you have taught me from my youth: and till now have I declared your wondrous works.
Oh Bog, učil si me od moje mladosti in doslej sem oznanjal tvoja čudovita dela.
18 Now also when I am old and gray headed, O God, forsake me not; until I have showed your strength to this generation, and your power to every one that is to come.
Tudi sedaj, ko sem star in sivolas, oh Bog, me ne zapusti, dokler ne pokažem tvoje moči temu rodu in tvojo oblast vsakemu, ki bo prišel.
19 Your righteousness also, O God, is very high, who have done great things: O God, who is like to you!
Tudi tvoja pravičnost, oh Bog, je zelo visoka, ki si storil velike stvari. Oh Bog, kdo ti je podoben!
20 You, which have showed me great and sore troubles, shall quicken me again, and shall bring me up again from the depths of the earth.
Ti, ki si mi pokazal velike in boleče stiske, me boš ponovno oživil in ponovno privedel gor iz globin zemlje.
21 You shall increase my greatness, and comfort me on every side.
Povečal boš mojo veličino in me tolažil na vsaki strani.
22 I will also praise you with the psaltery, even your truth, O my God: to you will I sing with the harp, O you Holy One of Israel.
Prav tako te bom hvalil s plunko, celó tvojo resnico, oh moj Bog. Tebi bom prepeval s harfo, oh ti, Sveti Izraelov.
23 My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing to you; and my soul, which you have redeemed.
Moje ustnice se bodo silno veselile, kadar ti prepevam in moja duša, ki si jo odkupil.
24 My tongue also shall talk of your righteousness all the day long: for they are confounded, for they are brought to shame, that seek my hurt.
Tudi moj jezik bo ves dan govoril o tvoji pravičnosti, kajti zbegani so, ker so privedeni v sramoto [tisti], ki iščejo mojo bolečino.
