< Psalms 16 >
1 A Precious Psalm of David. Preserve me, O GOD, for I have sought refuge in thee.
Odlična pesem Davidova. Reši me, Bog mogočni; ker k tebi pribegam:
2 Thou hast said unto Yahweh, My Lord, art thou! My goodness, mounteth not unto thee.
Gospodu govoriš: Gospod si moj, blaga mojega ne bodeš hranil pri sebi:
3 It belongeth unto the holy ones, whom, in his own land, Yahweh, ennobleth, In whom is all his delight
Svetim, ki so v deželi in veličastnim ga podeliš; na katerih je vse razveseljevanje moje.
4 They multiply their idols—another, have they purchased! I will not pour out their drink-offerings of blood, nor will I take up their names on my lips.
Njim množijo bolečine kateri drugemu delé; daroval ne bodem njih krvavih daritev, ne jemal njih imen na ustne svoje.
5 Yahweh, is mine allotted portion and my cup, Thou, art maintaining my lot.
Gospod je delež pristave moje in mojega ljudstva; ti vzdržuješ osodo mojo.
6 The lines, have fallen unto me, in pleasant places, Verily an inheritance that delighteth me.
Mérne vrvi so mi pale v preprijetnih krajih; tudi posestvo je sprelepo, katero me je doletelo.
7 I will bless Yahweh, who hath counselled me, —Surely, by night, shall mine impulses admonish me.
Blagoslavljal bodem Gospoda, kateri mi je dal sovèt; tudi ponoči me podučujejo obisti moje.
8 I have set Yahweh before me continually, because he is on my right hand, I shall not be shaken!
Predočujem si Gospoda neprestano; ker je na desnici moji, ne omahnem.
9 Therefore, hath my heart rejoiced, and mine honour exulted, Yea, my flesh, shall settle down securely;
Zatorej se veseli srce moje in raduje se slava moja; tudi meso moje prebiva brez skrbi.
10 For thou wilt not abandon my soul to hades, neither wilt thou suffer thy man of lovingkindness, to see corruption: (Sheol )
Ker duše moje ne bodeš pustil v grobu, ne pripustil ljubljencu svojemu, da vidi trohnobo. (Sheol )
11 Thou wilt cause me to know, the path of life, —Fulness of joys before thee, Pleasures at thy right hand evermore.
Naznanjaš mi življenja stezo; najslajših radosti obilost pred obličjem tvojim, na desnici tvoji vekomaj.
