Psalms 59
1 To the chief Musician, Altaschith, Michtam of David; when Saul sent, and they watched the house to kill him. Deliver me from my enemies, O my God: defend me from them that rise up against me.
Osvobodi me pred mojimi sovražniki, oh moj Bog. Brani me pred tistimi, ki se dvigujejo zoper mene.
2 Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from bloody men.
Osvobodi me pred delavci krivičnosti in reši me pred krvoločnimi ljudmi.
3 For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul: the mighty are gathered against me; not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O LORD.
Kajti, glej, za mojo dušo prežijo v zasedi, mogočni so se zbrali zoper mene; ne zaradi mojega prestopka niti ne zaradi mojega greha, oh Gospod.
4 They run and prepare themselves without my fault: awake to help me, and behold.
Brez moje krivde tečejo in se pripravljajo. Zbudi se, da mi pomagaš in glej.
5 Thou therefore, O LORD God of hosts, the God of Israel, awake to visit all the heathen: be not merciful to any wicked transgressors. (Selah)
Ti torej, oh Gospod Bog nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog, zbudi se, da obiščeš vse pogane. Z nobenim zlobnim prestopnikom ne bodi usmiljen. (Sela)
6 They return at evening: they make a noise like a dog, and go about the city.
Vračajo se zvečer, zganjajo hrup kakor pes in krožijo po mestu.
7 Behold, they belch out with their mouth: swords are in their lips: for who, say they, doth hear?
Glej, s svojimi usti bruhajo, meči so na njihovih ustnicah, kajti pravijo: »Kdo sliši?«
8 But thou, O LORD, shalt laugh at them; thou shalt have all the heathen in derision.
Toda ti, oh Gospod, se jim boš posmehoval, vse pogane boš imel v posmeh.
9 Because of his strength will I wait upon thee: for God is my defence.
Zaradi njegove moči bom čakal nate, kajti Bog je moja obramba.
10 The God of my mercy shall help me: God shall let me see my desire upon my enemies.
Bog mojega usmiljenja me bo vodil. Bog mi bo dal videti mojo željo na mojih sovražnikih.
11 Slay them not, lest my people forget: scatter them by thy power; and bring them down, O Lord our shield.
Ne ubij jih, da ne bi moje ljudstvo pozabilo. Razkropi jih s svojo močjo in zlomi jih, oh Gospod, naš ščit.
12 For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips let them even be taken in their pride: and for cursing and lying which they speak.
Zaradi greha njihovih ust in besed njihovih ustnic naj bodo celó prijeti v svojem ponosu in za preklinjanje in laži, katere govorijo.
13 Consume them in wrath, consume them, that they may not be: and let them know that God ruleth in Jacob to the ends of the earth. (Selah)
Použij jih v besu, použij jih, da jih ne bo in naj spoznajo, da Bog vlada v Jakobu do koncev zemlje. (Sela)
14 And at evening let them return; and let them make a noise like a dog, and go about the city.
Zvečer naj se vrnejo in naj zganjajo hrup kakor pes ter krožijo po mestu.
15 Let them wander up and down for food, and murmur if they are not satisfied.
Naj se potikajo gor in dol za hrano in godrnjajo, če ne bodo nasičeni.
16 But I will sing of thy power; yea, I will sing aloud of thy mercy in the morning: for thou hast been my defence and refuge in the day of my trouble.
Toda jaz bom prepeval o tvoji moči, da, zjutraj bom na glas prepeval o tvojem usmiljenju, kajti ti si bil moja obramba in zatočišče na dan moje stiske.
17 To thee, O my strength, will I sing: for God is my defence, and the God of my mercy.
Tebi, oh moja moč, bom prepeval, kajti Bog je moja obramba in Bog mojega usmiljenja.
