Psalms 64

1 TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. Hear, O God, my voice, in my (meditation) You keep my life from the fear of an enemy,

Načelniku godbe, psalm Davidov. Čuj, o Bog, glas moj, ko premišljujem; strahu sovražnikovega varuj življenje moje.

2 Hide me from the secret counsel of evildoers, From the tumult of workers of iniquity.

Skrivaj me skrivnemu naklepu hudobnih, ropotanju njih, ki delajo krivico:

3 Who sharpened their tongue as a sword, They directed their arrow—a bitter word.

Ki brusijo kakor meč jezik svoj, napenjajo kakor pušico svojo bridko besedo.

4 To shoot the perfect in secret places, Suddenly they shoot him, and do not fear.

S kopjem napadajo poštenjaka iz zakotja; nenadoma ga napadajo s kopjem in se ne bojé.

5 They strengthen an evil thing for themselves, They recount of the hiding of snares, They have said, “Who looks at it?”

Potrjujejo si reč hudobno; o skrivanji zank govoré; pravijo: Kdo bi jih videl?

6 They search out perverse things, “We perfected a searching search,” And the inward part of man, and the heart, [are] deep.

Preiskujejo krivice; oslabeli smo po tem, kar so tako zvito preiskali; tako globoko je osrčje moža in srce.

7 And God shoots them [with] an arrow, Their wounds have been sudden,

Ali ko jih bode Bog napadel s kopjem, pušica nagla bodejo njih udarci.

8 And they cause him to stumble, Their own tongue [is] against them, Every looker on them flees away.

In storili bodejo, da sè samim jezikom svojim udarijo sebe; razkropljeni se bodejo spustili v beg, kdorkoli jih bode videl.

9 And all men fear, and declare the work of God, And they have wisely considered His deed.

Katerikoli pa ljudjé se bojé, oznanjali bodo delo Božje in dejanje njegovo stavili pred óči.

10 The righteous rejoice in YHWH, And have trusted in Him, And all the upright of heart boast!

Veselil se bode pravični v Gospodu, in pribežal k njemu; ponašali se bodo vsi, ki so pravega srca.
