Psalms 13

1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. How long, O LORD, wilt thou forget me for ever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?

Doklej me boš pozabljal, oh Gospod? Na veke? Doklej boš svoj obraz skrival pred menoj?

2 How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart all the day? how long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?

Doklej se bom posvetoval v svoji duši, imel vsak dan bridkost v svojem srcu? Doklej se bo moj sovražnik poviševal nad menoj?

3 Consider [and] answer me, O LORD my God: lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the [sleep of] death;

Preudari in poslušaj me, oh Gospod, moj Bog. Razsvetli moje oči, da ne zaspim spanja smrti,

4 Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him; [lest] mine adversaries rejoice when I am moved.

da ne bi moj sovražnik rekel: »Prevladal sem proti njemu« in da se tisti, ki me mučijo, ne veselijo, ko sem omajan.

5 But I have trusted in thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in thy salvation:

Toda jaz sem zaupal v tvoje usmiljenje; moje srce se bo veselilo v tvoji rešitvi duše.

6 I will sing unto the LORD, because he hath dealt bountifully with me.

Prepeval bom Gospodu, ker je radodarno ravnal z menoj.
