Psalms 27

1 [By David.] The LORD is my light and my salvation. Whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life. Of whom shall I be afraid?

Pesem Davidova; Gospod je luč moja in blaginja moja, koga bi se bal? Gospod je življenja mojega moč, koga bi se plašil?

2 When evildoers came at me to eat up my flesh, even my adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell.

Vojskujejo se proti meni hudobniki, da pojedó moje meso, sovražniki moji in neprijatelji moji proti meni; oni se zgruzajo in padajo.

3 Though an army is deployed against me, my heart shall not fear. Though war should rise against me, even then I will be confident.

Ko bi šatorišče stavili proti meni, ne bi se balo srce moje; ko bi se spela vojska zoper mene, bil bi brez skrbi za to.

4 One thing I have asked of the LORD, that I will seek after, that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to see the LORD's beauty, and to inquire in his temple.

Eno sem prosil Gospoda, tega samo želim: da naj sedevam v hiši Gospodovi vse dnî življenja svojega, da gledam lepoto Gospodovo in preiskujem v svetišči njegovem.

5 For in the day of trouble he will keep me secretly in his pavilion. In the covert of his tabernacle he will hide me. He will lift me up on a rock.

Ker skriva me v koči svoji ob času nadloge; skriva me v skrivnem kraji šatora svojega, dviguje me na skalo.

6 Now my head will be lifted up above my enemies around me. I will offer sacrifices of joy in his tent. I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the LORD.

Že se spenja glava moja nad sovražnike moje, stoječe okrog mene; da darujem v šatoru njegovem daritve z veselim hrupom, pojem in prepevam Gospodu.

7 Hear, LORD, when I cry with my voice. Have mercy also on me, and answer me.

Sliši me, Gospod, ko kličem z glasom svojim: in milost mi storí, usliši me.

8 My heart said of you, "Seek his face." Your face, LORD, I will seek.

Tvojo besedo: "Iščite obličje moje," premišlja srce moje; obličje tvoje iščem, Gospod.

9 Do not hide your face from me. Do not put your servant away in anger. You have been my help. Do not abandon me, neither forsake me, God of my salvation.

Ne skrivaj mi obličja svojega, ne obračaj se v jezi od svojega hlapca; pomoč moja si bil, ne zapusti me in ne ostavi blaginje moje.

10 When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up.

Ker oče moj in mati moja me zapuščata, Gospod pa me sprejme.

11 Teach me your way, LORD. Lead me in a straight path, because of my enemies.

Uči me, Gospod, svoj pot, in vodi me po ravni stezi zavoljo njih, ki v mé preže.

12 Do not deliver me over to the desire of my adversaries, for false witnesses have risen up against me, such as breathe out violence.

Ne izdajaj me želji sovražnikov mojih; ker zoper mene stojé lažnjive priče, in ki pihajo silovitost;

13 I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.

Ko bi ne veroval, da bodem užival dobroto Gospodovo v deželi živečih.

14 Wait for the LORD. Be strong, and let your heart take courage. Yes, wait for the LORD.

Čakaj Gospoda, potolaži se, in pokrepčal bode srce tvoje; torej čakaj Gospoda.
