Psalms 64

1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. Hear my voice, O God, in my complaint: preserve my life from fear of the 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 evil-doers; from the tumult of the workers of iniquity:

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

3 Who have whet their tongue like a sword, and have aimed their arrows, even bitter words:

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

4 That they may shoot in secret places at the perfect: suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.

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

5 They encourage themselves in an evil purpose; they commune of laying snares privily; they say, Who shall see them?

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

6 They search out iniquities; We have accomplished, [say they], a diligent search: and the inward thought of every one, and the heart, is deep.

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

7 But God shall shoot at them; with an arrow suddenly shall they be wounded.

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

8 So they shall be made to stumble, their own tongue being against them: all that see them shall wag the head.

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

9 And all men shall fear; and they shall declare the work of God, and shall wisely consider of his doing.

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

10 The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall trust in him; and all the upright in heart shall glory.

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