< Psalms 41 >
1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. Blessed [is] he that considereth the poor: the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble.
Načelniku godbe, psalm Davidov. Blagor mu, kdor se spominja siromaka, govoreč: O času nadloge bode ga otél Gospod.
2 The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive; [and] he shall be blessed upon the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his enemies.
Gospod ga bode rešil, ohranil življenju; srečen bode na zemlji, in ne izdajaj ga želji sovražnikov njegovih.
3 The LORD will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing: thou wilt make all his bed in his sickness.
Gospod naj ga podpira na postelji slabosti: vse ležišče njegovo vsled bolezni njegove preméni,
4 I said, LORD, be merciful unto me: heal my soul; for I have sinned against thee.
Ko govorim: Gospod, milost mi stóri, ozdravi dušo mojo, ker tebi sem grešil.
5 Mine enemies speak evil of me, When shall he die, and his name perish?
Sovražniki moji so slabo govorili o meni: Kdaj bode umrl in bode izginilo ime njegovo?
6 And if he come to see [me], he speaketh vanity: his heart gathereth iniquity to itself; [when] he goeth abroad, he telleth [it].
Ko je tedaj prihajal obiskat me kdó, govorilo je laž srce njegovo; zbiralo si je krivico: šel je ven in právil.
7 All that hate me whisper together against me: against me do they devise my hurt.
Vkup so šepetali zoper mene vsi sovražniki moji; zoper mene so izmišljali, kar bi mi bilo v zlo, govoreč:
8 An evil disease, [say they], cleaveth fast unto him: and [now] that he lieth he shall rise up no more.
Stvar silno malopridna tiči v njem globoko, in ker leži, več ne vstane.
9 Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, hath lifted up [his] heel against me.
Tudi mož, ki je živel v miru z menoj, v katerega sem zaupal, kateri je jedel mojo jed, vzdignil je peto proti meni.
10 But thou, O LORD, be merciful unto me, and raise me up, that I may requite them.
Ti pa, Gospod, storí mi milost, in zbúdi me, da jim povrnem.
11 By this I know that thou favourest me, because mine enemy doth not triumph over me.
12 And as for me, thou upholdest me in mine integrity, and settest me before thy face for ever.
13 Blessed [be] the LORD God of Israel from everlasting, and to everlasting. Amen, and Amen.
