Psalms 61

1 “To the chief musician upon Neginah, by David.” Hear, O God, my entreaty; listen to my prayer.

Sliši moj klic, oh Bog, prisluhni moji molitvi.

2 From the end of the earth will I call unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is too high for me.

Od konca zemlje bom klical k tebi, ko je moje srce preplavljeno. Vôdi me k skali, ki je višja kakor jaz.

3 For thou hast been a shelter unto me, a strong tower against the enemy.

Kajti zame si bil zatočišče in močna trdnjava pred sovražnikom.

4 Let me sojourn in thy tent to all eternity; let me be sheltered under the covert of thy wings. (Selah)

V tvojem šotorskem svetišču bom ostal na veke. Zaupal bom v skrivališče tvojih peruti. (Sela)

5 For thou, O God, hast truly listened to my vows: thou hast given back the heritage of those that fear thy name.

Kajti ti, oh Bog, si uslišal moje zaobljube; dal si mi dediščino tistih, ki se bojijo tvojega imena.

6 Oh, add days unto the king's days: may his years be as of many generations.

Kralju boš podaljšal življenje in njegova leta kakor mnoge rodove.

7 May he abide for ever before God: ordain that kindness and truth may guard him.

Pred Bogom bo on ostal na veke. O pripravi usmiljenje in resnico, ki ga lahko varuje.

8 So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, that I may pay my vows day by day.

Tako bom na veke prepeval hvalo tvojemu imenu, da bom lahko dnevno opravljal svoje zaobljube.
