Psalms 27
1 “Of David.” The Lord is my light and my salvation; of whom shall I be afraid? the Lord is the fortress of my life; of whom shall I have dread?
Pesem Davidova; Gospod je luč moja in blaginja moja, koga bi se bal? Gospod je življenja mojega moč, koga bi se plašil?
2 When evil-doers come near against me to eat up my flesh, my assailants and my enemies at me: then do they stumble and fall.
Vojskujejo se proti meni hudobniki, da pojedó moje meso, sovražniki moji in neprijatelji moji proti meni; oni se zgruzajo in padajo.
3 If an army should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: if war should arise against me, even then will I have trust.
Ko bi šatorišče stavili proti meni, ne bi se balo srce moje; ko bi se spela vojska zoper mene, bil bi brez skrbi za to.
4 One thing have I asked of the Lord, that I will seek for: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the loveliness of the Lord, and to be every morning early in his temple.
Eno sem prosil Gospoda, tega samo želim: da naj sedevam v hiši Gospodovi vse dnî življenja svojega, da gledam lepoto Gospodovo in preiskujem v svetišči njegovem.
5 For he will hide me in his pavilion on the day of evil; he will conceal me in the secret of his tabernacle; upon a rock will he place me high.
Ker skriva me v koči svoji ob času nadloge; skriva me v skrivnem kraji šatora svojega, dviguje me na skalo.
6 And now will my head be lifted up above my enemies all round about me; and I will sacrifice in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy: I will sing, and I will triumphantly play unto the Lord.
Že se spenja glava moja nad sovražnike moje, stoječe okrog mene; da darujem v šatoru njegovem daritve z veselim hrupom, pojem in prepevam Gospodu.
7 Hear, O Lord, my voice, [when] I call, and be gracious unto me, and answer me.
Sliši me, Gospod, ko kličem z glasom svojim: in milost mi storí, usliši me.
8 Of thee, said my heart, “Seek ye my presence”: thy presence, Lord, will I seek.
Tvojo besedo: "Iščite obličje moje," premišlja srce moje; obličje tvoje iščem, Gospod.
9 Hide [then] not thy face from me; reject not in anger thy servant, thou [who] hast been my help: cast me not off, nor forsake me, O God of my salvation.
Ne skrivaj mi obličja svojega, ne obračaj se v jezi od svojega hlapca; pomoč moja si bil, ne zapusti me in ne ostavi blaginje moje.
10 For my father and my mother have forsaken me; but the Lord will take me up.
Ker oče moj in mati moja me zapuščata, Gospod pa me sprejme.
11 Point me out thy way, O Lord! and guide me on a level path, because of those that regard me enviously.
Uči me, Gospod, svoj pot, in vodi me po ravni stezi zavoljo njih, ki v mé preže.
12 Give me not up to the [revengeful] desire of my assailants; for there are risen up against me false witnesses, and such as utter violence.
Ne izdajaj me želji sovražnikov mojih; ker zoper mene stojé lažnjive priče, in ki pihajo silovitost;
13 Unless I had believed to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of life—
Ko bi ne veroval, da bodem užival dobroto Gospodovo v deželi živečih.
14 Wait on the Lord; be strong, and let thy heart be of good courage; and only wait on the Lord.
Čakaj Gospoda, potolaži se, in pokrepčal bode srce tvoje; torej čakaj Gospoda.
