< Psalms 116 >
1 I love Yahweh—because he heareth my voice, my supplications;
Dovolj mi je, da Gospod usliši glas moj, molitve moje.
2 Because he hath bowed down his ear unto me, therefore, throughout my days, will I call.
Ker je uho svoje nagnil meni, zatorej ga bodem klical svoje dni.
3 The meshes of death encompassed me, and the distresses of hades, came upon me, Peril and sorrow, I found; (Sheol )
Ko me obdajajo smrtne bolečine, in me obhajajo grobne stiske; nadlogo in žalost nahajam. (Sheol )
4 But, on the Name of Yahweh, I called—I beseech thee, Yahweh, deliver my soul.
Če kličem ime Gospodovo, govoreč: "Rotim te, Gospod, reši dušo mojo!"
5 Gracious is Yahweh and righteous, and, our God, is full of compassion.
Milosten je Gospod, in pravičen, Bog naš, pravim, usmiljen.
6 Yahweh, preserveth the simple, I was brought low, when, to me, he granted salvation.
Preproste rešuje Gospod; ko sem ponižan, prinese mi blaginjo.
7 Return, O my soul, to thy rest, For, Yahweh, hath dealt bountifully with thee.
Povrni se v pokoj svoj, duša moja, ker Gospod je dobrotljiv tebi.
8 For thou hast rescued my soul from death, —mine eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling.
Ker si otél mene samega smrti, oči moje sólz, nogo mojo padca,
9 I will walk to and fro before Yahweh, in the lands of life.
Neprestano bodem hodil pred Gospodom, v krajih živečih.
10 I believed that I should speak, I, was greatly depressed.
Veroval sem, ko sem hotel to govoriti; jaz sem bil aboten čez mero.
11 I, said in mine alarm, All men, are false!
Jaz sem rekel hiteč: Vsak človek je lažnjiv.
12 How shall I give back to Yahweh, All his benefits unto me?
Kaj naj povrnem Gospodu? Vse dobrote njegove me premagujejo.
13 The cup of salvation, will I lift, and, on the Name of Yahweh, will I call:
Čašo vse blaginje bodem povzdignil in slavil ime Gospodovo,
14 My vows—to Yahweh, will I pay, Might it be in presence of all his people!
Obljube svoje opravljajoč Gospodu, skôraj pred vsem ljudstvom njegovim.
15 Costly in the eyes of Yahweh, is, death, for his men of lovingkindness.
Draga je pred obličjem Gospodovim smrt njih, katerim izkazuje milost.
16 I beseech thee, O Yahweh—for, I, am thy servant, —I, am thy servant, the son of thy handmaid, Thou hast loosened my bonds.
Prosim, Gospod, ko sem jaz hlapec tvoj, hlapec tvoj sem, dekle tvoje sin; raztrgal si vezí moje:
17 To thee, will I sacrifice a sacrifice of thanksgiving, and, on the Name of Yahweh, will I call:
Tebi naj darujem hvalno daritev, in slavim ime Gospodovo.
18 My vows—to Yahweh, will I pay, Might it be in the presence of all his people; —
Obljube svoje bodem opravljal Gospodu skoraj pred vsem ljudstvom njegovim;
19 In the courts of the house of Yahweh, In the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Praise ye Yah!
V vežah hiše Gospodove, sredi tebe, Jeruzalem. Aleluja!
