Psalms 54

1 “To the chief musician on Neginoth, a Maskil of David, When the Ziphim came and said to Saul, Behold, David is hiding himself with us.” O God, by thy name save me, and by thy strength grant me justice.

Načelniku godbe na strune; pesem Davidova, ukovita. Ko so prišli Zifejci in rekli Savlu: Ali ne tiči David pri nas? Bog, zavoljo imena svojega reši me, in po kreposti svoji potegni se zame.

2 O God, hear my prayer; give ear to the words of my mouth.

Bog, čuj molitev mojo, uho nagni besedam mojih ust.

3 For strangers [to goodness] are risen up against me, and powerful oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set God before them. (Selah)

Ker tujci spenjajo se proti meni in silovitniki iščejo življenje moje; Boga nimajo pred očmi.

4 Behold, God is a helper unto me: the Lord is among those that uphold my soul.

Glej, Bog mi pomaga, Gospod je med njimi, ki podpirajo življenje moje.

5 He will cause the evil to return upon those that regard me with envy: in thy truth cut them off.

Sovražnikom mojim vrni tisto zlo, po resničnosti svoji jih pokončaj.

6 I will liberally sacrifice unto thee: I will give thanks unto thy name, O Lord; for it is good.

Obilo ti bodem daroval; slavil bodem ime tvoje, Gospod, ker je dobro.

7 For out of all distress hath he delivered me: and my eye hath seen [its desire] on my enemies.

Ker reši me vsake stiske, in sovražnike moje gleda moje oko.
