< Psalms 41 >

1 Yahweh is pleased with those people who help to provide for the poor; he will rescue those people when they have troubles.
Načelniku godbe, psalm Davidov. Blagor mu, kdor se spominja siromaka, govoreč: O času nadloge bode ga otél Gospod.
2 Yahweh protects them and allows them to live [for a long time]. He enables them to be happy in the land [of Israel], and rescues them from their enemies.
Gospod ga bode rešil, ohranil življenju; srečen bode na zemlji, in ne izdajaj ga želji sovražnikov njegovih.
3 When they are sick, Yahweh strengthens them, and he heals them.
Gospod naj ga podpira na postelji slabosti: vse ležišče njegovo vsled bolezni njegove preméni,
4 [When I was sick], I said, “Yahweh, be merciful to me and heal me; [I know that I am sick because] I have sinned against you.”
Ko govorim: Gospod, milost mi stóri, ozdravi dušo mojo, ker tebi sem grešil.
5 My enemies say cruel things about me; they say, “How soon will he die, and then everyone will forget about him [MTY]? (OR, he will not have [any descendants to continue] his name).”
Sovražniki moji so slabo govorili o meni: Kdaj bode umrl in bode izginilo ime njegovo?
6 When my enemies come to me, they falsely say that they [are concerned about me]. They listen to bad news about (me/my health). Then they go away and tell everywhere what is happening to me.
Ko je tedaj prihajal obiskat me kdó, govorilo je laž srce njegovo; zbiralo si je krivico: šel je ven in právil.
7 All those who hate me whisper to others about me, and they hope/desire that very bad things will happen to me.
Vkup so šepetali zoper mene vsi sovražniki moji; zoper mene so izmišljali, kar bi mi bilo v zlo, govoreč:
8 They say, “He will soon die because of his being sick; he will never get up from his bed [before he dies].”
Stvar silno malopridna tiči v njem globoko, in ker leži, več ne vstane.
9 Even my best friend, whom I trusted very much, who [often] ate with me, has (betrayed me/put me into my enemies’ hands) [IDM].
Tudi mož, ki je živel v miru z menoj, v katerega sem zaupal, kateri je jedel mojo jed, vzdignil je peto proti meni.
10 But Yahweh, be merciful to me, and enable me to become healthy [again]. When you do that, I will be able to (pay back my enemies/get revenge on my enemies/cause my enemies to suffer like they caused me to suffer).
Ti pa, Gospod, storí mi milost, in zbúdi me, da jim povrnem.
11 [If you enable me to] do that, with the result that my enemies do not defeat me, I will know that you are pleased with me.
12 [I will know that] it is because I have done what is right that you have helped me, and [I will know that] you will let me be with you forever.
13 Praise Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship]; Praise him forever! Amen! I desire that it will be so!
