Psalms 36

1 To the Overseer. — By a servant of Jehovah, by David. The transgression of the wicked Is affirming within my heart, 'Fear of God is not before his eyes,

Načelniku godbe; pesem hlapca Gospodovega, Davida. Beseda pregrehe krivičnega je v srca mojega globočini: Pred očmi njegovimi ni strahu Božjega.

2 For he made [it] smooth to himself in his eyes, To find his iniquity to be hated.

Slepí se v svojih očéh, ko doseže krivico svojo, katero naj bi sovražil.

3 The words of his mouth [are] iniquity and deceit, He ceased to act prudently — to do good.

Besede ust njegovih so prazne in zvijačne; rabiti jenja razum, da bi delal dobro.

4 Iniquity he deviseth on his bed, He stationeth himself on a way not good, Evil he doth not refuse.'

Ničemurnost misli v postelji svoji, stopa na pot, ki ni dobra: hudega ne zameta.

5 O Jehovah, in the heavens [is] Thy kindness, Thy faithfulness [is] unto the clouds.

Gospod, v nebesih je milost tvoja, zvestoba tvoja noter do gornjih oblakov.

6 Thy righteousness [is] as mountains of God, Thy judgments [are] a great deep. Man and beast Thou savest, O Jehovah.

Pravica tvoja kakor največje gore, sodbe tvoje valovi veliki; ljudî in živali ohranjaš, Gospod.

7 How precious [is] Thy kindness, O God, And the sons of men In the shadow of Thy wings do trust.

Kako dražestna je milost tvoja, Bog, ko sinovi človeški pribegajo v senco peróti tvojih.

8 They are filled from the fatness of Thy house, And the stream of Thy delights Thou dost cause them to drink.

Preobilno se napolnjujejo z obilostjo hiše tvoje, in iz potoka svojih slasti jih napajaš.

9 For with Thee [is] a fountain of life, In Thy light we see light.

Ker pri tebi je življenja vir, v svetlobi tvoji uživamo svetlobo.

10 Draw out Thy kindness to those knowing Thee, And Thy righteousness to the upright of heart.

Pomóli milost svojo njim, ki te spoznavajo, in pravico svojo pravičnim v srci.

11 Let not a foot of pride meet me, And a hand of the wicked let not move me.

Ne zadeni me prevzetnega noga, in roka krivičnih naj me ne zapelje, da zaidem.

12 There have workers of iniquity fallen, They have been overthrown, And have not been able to arise!

Ko padejo hudodelniki, zaženó se tako, da ne morejo vstati.
