Psalms 36
1 “To the chief musician, by the servant of the Lord, by David.” Saith vice itself to the wicked—so I feel it within my heart— that he should have no dread of God before his eyes.
Prestopek zlobnega znotraj mojega srca pravi, da pred njegovimi očmi ni Božjega strahu.
2 For he flattereth himself in his own eyes [too much] to find out his iniquity to hate it.
Kajti v svojih lastnih očeh si laska, dokler se ne najde njegova krivičnost, da je vreden sovraštva.
3 The words of his mouth are wickedness and deceit: he hath left off to be wise, to do good.
Besede iz njegovih ust so krivičnost in prevara. Prenehal je biti moder in delati dobro.
4 He deviseth wickedness upon his couch; he placeth himself on a way that is not good; evil he despiseth not.
Na svoji postelji snuje vragolijo, postavlja se na pot, ki ni dobra, zla ne prezira.
5 O Lord, into the heavens reacheth thy kindness, thy faithfulness even into the skies.
Tvoje usmiljenje, oh Gospod, je v nebesih; in tvoja zvestoba sega do oblakov.
6 Thy righteousness is like the mountains of God; thy acts of justice like the great deep: man and beast dost thou ever help, O Lord.
Tvoja pravičnost je podobna velikim goram, tvoje sodbe so zelo globokoumne. Oh Gospod, ti ohranjaš človeka in žival.
7 How precious is thy kindness, O God! And the children of men that seek shelter under the shadow of thy wings, —
Kako odlična je tvoja ljubeča skrbnost, oh Bog! Zato človeški otroci svoje trdno upanje polagajo pod senco tvojih peruti.
8 These will be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; and of the stream of thy delights wilt thou give them to drink.
Obilno bodo nasičeni z obiljem tvoje hiše in primoral jih boš piti iz reke svojih radosti.
9 For with thee is the source of life: in thy light shall we see light.
Kajti s teboj je studenec življenja, v tvoji svetlobi bomo videli svetlobo.
10 Draw down continuously thy kindness unto those that acknowledge thee; and thy righteousness to the upright in heart.
Oh nadaljuj svoje ljubeče skrbnosti tem, ki te poznajo, in svojo pravičnost do iskrenih v srcu.
11 Let not come against me the foot of pride, and let not the hand of the wicked chase me off.
Naj proti meni ne pride stopalo ponosnega in naj me roka zlobnega ne odstrani.
12 There are fallen the workers of wickedness: they are thrust down, and shall not be able to rise.
Tam so padli delavci krivičnosti. Podrti so in ne bodo mogli vstati.
