< Psalms 54 >
1 For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. Maschil of David: when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, Doth not David hide himself with us? Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me in thy might.
Načelniku godbe na strune; pesem Davidova, ukovita. Ko so prišli Zifejci in rekli Savlu: Ali ne tiči David pri nas? Bog, zavoljo imena svojega reši me, in po kreposti svoji potegni se zame.
2 Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth.
Bog, čuj molitev mojo, uho nagni besedam mojih ust.
3 For strangers are risen up against me, and violent men have sought after my soul: they have not set God before them. (Selah)
Ker tujci spenjajo se proti meni in silovitniki iščejo življenje moje; Boga nimajo pred očmi.
4 Behold, God is mine helper: the Lord is of them that uphold my soul.
Glej, Bog mi pomaga, Gospod je med njimi, ki podpirajo življenje moje.
5 He shall requite the evil unto mine enemies: destroy thou them in thy truth.
Sovražnikom mojim vrni tisto zlo, po resničnosti svoji jih pokončaj.
6 With a freewill offering will I sacrifice unto thee: I will give thanks unto thy name, O LORD, for it is good.
Obilo ti bodem daroval; slavil bodem ime tvoje, Gospod, ker je dobro.
7 For he hath delivered me out of all trouble; and mine eye hath seen [my desire] upon mine enemies.
Ker reši me vsake stiske, in sovražnike moje gleda moje oko.
