Psalms 21
1 To the Chief Musician. A Melody of David. O Yahweh, in thy strength, will the king rejoice, and, in thy salvation, how greatly will he exult!
Kralj se bo veselil v tvoji moči, oh Gospod in kako silno se bo radoval v tvoji rešitvi duše!
2 The longing of his heart, hast thou given him, and, the request of his lips, hast thou not withheld. (Selah)
Dal si mu željo njegovega srca in nisi zadržal prošnje njegovih ustnic. (Sela)
3 For thou wilt come to meet him, with the blessings of goodness, Thou wilt set on his head, a crown of pure gold.
Kajti vodiš ga z blagoslovi dobrote. Na njegovo glavo postavljaš krono iz čistega zlata.
4 Life, he asked of thee, Thou hast given it him, length of days, to times age-abiding and beyond.
Prosil te je življenja in ti mu ga daješ, celó dolžino dni na veke vekov.
5 Great is his glory, in thy salvation, Honour and majesty, wilt thou lay upon him;
Njegova slava v tvoji rešitvi duše je velika. Čast in veličanstvo si položil nanj.
6 For thou wilt appoint him blessings evermore, wilt cheer him with joy by thy countenance;
Kajti naredil si ga najbolj blagoslovljenega na veke. S svojim obličjem si ga storil silno veselega.
7 For, the king, is trusting in Yahweh, and, in the lovingkindness of the Highest, shall he not be shaken.
Kajti kralj zaupa v Gospoda in zaradi usmiljenja Najvišjega ne bo omajan.
8 Thy hand, will find out, all thy foes, Thine own right hand, will find out them who hate thee.
Tvoja roka bo zalotila vse tvoje sovražnike. Tvoja desnica bo zalotila tiste, ki te sovražijo.
9 Thou wilt make them like a furnace of fire, at the time of thy presence, —Yahweh, in his anger, will swallow them up, and there shall consume them a fire:
V času svoje jeze jih boš naredil kakor ognjeno peč. Gospod jih bo v svoji jezi pogoltnil in ogenj jih bo požrl.
10 Their fruit—out of the earth, wilt thou destroy, and their seed, from among the sons of men;
Njihov sad boš uničil z zemlje in njihovo seme izmed človeških otrok.
11 For they have held out, against thee, a wicked thing, They have devised a scheme they cannot accomplish.
Kajti zoper tebe so načrtovali zlo. Domislili so si poguben naklep, ki ga niso mogli izpolniti.
12 For thou wilt cause them to turn their back, Upon thy bow-strings, wilt thou make ready against their face.
Zato boš storil, da bodo obrnili svoj hrbet, ko boš pripravil svoje puščice na tetive proti njihovim obrazom.
13 Be exalted, O Yahweh, in thy strength! With song and with string will we sound forth thy power.
Bodi vzvišen, Gospod, v svoji lastni moči. Tako bomo opevali in hvalili tvojo moč.
