Psalms 20

1 TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. YHWH answers you, In a day of adversity, The Name of the God of Jacob sets you on high,

Načelniku godbe, psalm Davidov. Usliši te naj Gospod ob času stiske; na višavo naj te postavi ime Boga Jakobovega.

2 He sends your help from the sanctuary, And supports you from Zion,

Pošlje naj ti pomoč iz svetišča, in sè Sijona naj te podpira.

3 He remembers all your presents, And reduces your burnt-offering to ashes. (Selah)

Dúha naj vse dari tvoje, in upepeli naj žgalno daritev tvojo.

4 He gives to you according to your heart, And fulfills all your counsel.

Dá ti naj po srci tvojem, in izpolni naj vsak sklep tvoj.

5 We sing of Your salvation, And in the Name of our God set up a banner. YHWH fulfills all your requests.

Prepevajmo o blaginji tvoji; in v imenu Boga našega nosimo zastave; izpolni naj Gospod vse prošnje tvoje.

6 Now I have known That YHWH has saved His anointed, He answers him from His holy heavens, With the saving might of His right hand.

Zdaj spoznavam, da Gospod brani maziljenca svojega, usliši ga z nebes svetosti svoje; po največji kreposti, blaginji desnice svoje.

7 Some of chariots, and some of horses, And we of the Name of our God YHWH Make mention.

Ti vóz, in oni kónj, mi pa se spominjamo imena Gospoda, Boga našega.

8 They have bowed and have fallen, And we have risen and station ourselves upright.

Oni se pripogibajo in padajo; mi pa vstajamo in stojimo.

9 O YHWH, save the king, He answers us in the day we call!

Gospod, reši! kralj sam naj usliši nas ob času, ko ga bodemo klicali.
