Psalms 51

1 TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID, IN THE COMING OF NATHAN THE PROPHET TO HIM WHEN HE HAS GONE IN TO BATHSHEBA. Favor me, O God, according to Your kindness, According to the abundance of Your mercies, Blot out my transgressions.

Usmili se me, oh Bog, glede na svojo ljubečo skrbnost, glede na množino svojih nežnih usmiljenj izbriši moje prestopke.

2 Thoroughly wash me from my iniquity, And cleanse me from my sin,

Temeljito me operi moje krivičnosti in me očisti mojega greha.

3 For I know my transgressions, And my sin [is] continually before me.

Kajti priznavam svoje prestopke in moj greh je vedno pred menoj.

4 Against You, You only, I have sinned, And done evil in Your eyes, So that You are righteous in Your words, You are pure in Your judging.

Zoper tebe, tebe samega, sem grešil in storil to zlo v tvojem pogledu, da bi bil ti lahko opravičen, kadar spregovoriš in bil čist, kadar sodiš.

5 Behold, I have been brought forth in iniquity, And my mother conceives me in sin.

Glej, oblikovan sem bil v krivičnosti in v grehu me je spočela moja mati.

6 Behold, You have desired truth in the inward parts, And in the hidden part You cause me to know Wisdom.

Glej, želiš resnico v notranjih delih in na skritem delu mi boš storil, da spoznam modrost.

7 You cleanse me with hyssop and I am clean, Wash me, and I am whiter than snow.

Očisti me z izopom in bom čist. Umij me in bom bolj bel kakor sneg.

8 You cause me to hear joy and gladness, You make bones You have bruised joyful.

Daj mi slišati radost in veselje, da se kosti, ki si jih zlomil, lahko veselijo.

9 Hide Your face from my sin. And blot out all my iniquities.

Svoj obraz skrij pred mojimi grehi in izbriši vse moje krivičnosti.

10 Create for me a clean heart, O God, And renew a right spirit within me.

Ustvari v meni čisto srce, oh Bog, in prenovi pravega duha v meni.

11 Do not cast me forth from Your presence, And do not take Your Holy Spirit from me.

Ne zavrzi me izpred svoje prisotnosti in svojega svetega duha ne vzemi od mene.

12 Restore to me the joy of Your salvation, And a willing spirit sustains me.

Obnovi mi radost svoje rešitve duše in s svojim voljnim duhom me podpiraj.

13 I teach transgressors Your ways, And sinners return to You.

Potem bom prestopnike učil tvojih poti in grešniki bodo spreobrnjeni k tebi.

14 Deliver me from blood, O God, God of my salvation, My tongue sings of Your righteousness.

Osvobodi me pred krivdo prelitja krvi, oh Bog, ti Bog rešitve moje duše in moj jezik bo na glas prepeval o tvoji pravičnosti.

15 O Lord, you open my lips, And my mouth declares Your praise.

Oh Gospod, odpri moje ustnice in moja usta bodo naznanila tvojo hvalo.

16 For You do not desire sacrifice, or I give [it], You do not accept burnt-offering.

Kajti ne želiš si klavne daritve, sicer bi ti jo dal. Ne razveseljuješ se v žgalni daritvi.

17 The sacrifices of God [are] a broken spirit, A heart broken and bruised, O God, You do not despise.

Božje klavne daritve so zlomljen duh. Zlomljenega in skesanega srca, oh Bog, ne boš preziral.

18 Do good in Your good pleasure with Zion, You build the walls of Jerusalem.

Po svoji dobri volji stôri dobro Sionu, pozidaj jeruzalemske zidove.

19 Then You desire sacrifices of righteousness, Burnt-offering, and whole burnt-offering, Then they offer bullocks on your altar!

Potem boš zadovoljen s klavnimi daritvami pravičnosti, z žgalno daritvijo in popolno žgalno daritvijo. Potem bodo na tvojem oltarju darovali bikce.
