Psalms 63

1 A PSALM OF DAVID, IN HIS BEING IN THE WILDERNESS OF JUDAH. O God, You [are] my God, earnestly I seek You, My soul has thirsted for You, My flesh has longed for You, In a dry and weary land, without waters.

Psalm Davidov, ko je bil v puščavi Judovi. O Bog, Bog mogočni si moj, zgodaj te iščem; dušo mojo žeja po tebi; po tebi hrepeni moje meso, v deželi suhi in onemogli brez vodá:

2 So I have seen You in the sanctuary, To behold Your strength and Your glory.

Gledati tvojo moč in slavo: tvojo, kakor sem te gledal v svetem kraji.

3 Because better [is] Your kindness than life, My lips praise You.

(Ker milost tvoja je boljša od življenja), hvalijo naj te ustne moje.

4 So I bless You in my life, I lift up my hands in Your Name.

Tako te bodem blagoslavljal v življenji svojem, v imenu tvojem bodem povzdigaval svoje roke.

5 As [with] milk and fatness is my soul satisfied, And [with] singing lips my mouth praises.

Kakor tolšče in masti bode se nasitila duša moja, in z blagoglasnimi ustnami bodo te hvalila usta moja.

6 If I have remembered You on my bed, I meditate on You in the watches.

Ko se spomnim tebe na ležišči svojem, čujem in premišljam tebe:

7 For You have been a help to me, And I sing in the shadow of Your wings.

Da si bil velika pomoč meni, tako da sem prepeval v senci tvojih peroti;

8 My soul has cleaved after You, Your right hand has taken hold on me.

Ko se duša moja tebe drži in gre za teboj, podpira me desnica tvoja.

9 And they who seek my soul for desolation, Go into the lower parts of the earth.

Zatorej bodejo oni, ki iščejo pogubljenja duše moje, prišli v najspodnje kraje zemlje.

10 They cause him to run on the edge of the sword, They are a portion for foxes.

Storili bodo, da vsak iz med njih pogine z mečem; lesicam bodejo delež.

11 And the king rejoices in God, Everyone swearing by Him boasts, But the mouth of those speaking lies is stopped!

Kralj pa sam bode se radoval v Bogu; ponašal se bode, kdorkoli priseza pri njem, ko se bodejo zamašila usta laž govorečim.
