Psalms 41
1 To the Overseer. — A Psalm of David. O the happiness of him Who is acting wisely unto the poor, In a day of evil doth Jehovah deliver him.
Načelniku godbe, psalm Davidov. Blagor mu, kdor se spominja siromaka, govoreč: O času nadloge bode ga otél Gospod.
2 Jehovah doth preserve him and revive him, He is happy in the land, And Thou givest him not into the will of his enemies.
Gospod ga bode rešil, ohranil življenju; srečen bode na zemlji, in ne izdajaj ga želji sovražnikov njegovih.
3 Jehovah supporteth on a couch of sickness, All his bed Thou hast turned in his weakness.
Gospod naj ga podpira na postelji slabosti: vse ležišče njegovo vsled bolezni njegove preméni,
4 I — I said, 'O Jehovah, favour me, Heal my soul, for I did sin against Thee,'
Ko govorim: Gospod, milost mi stóri, ozdravi dušo mojo, ker tebi sem grešil.
5 Mine enemies say evil of me: When he dieth — his name hath perished!
Sovražniki moji so slabo govorili o meni: Kdaj bode umrl in bode izginilo ime njegovo?
6 And if he came to see — vanity he speaketh, His heart gathereth iniquity to itself, He goeth out — at the street he speaketh.
Ko je tedaj prihajal obiskat me kdó, govorilo je laž srce njegovo; zbiralo si je krivico: šel je ven in právil.
7 All hating me whisper together against me, Against me they devise evil to me:
Vkup so šepetali zoper mene vsi sovražniki moji; zoper mene so izmišljali, kar bi mi bilo v zlo, govoreč:
8 A thing of Belial is poured out on him, And because he lay down he riseth not again.
Stvar silno malopridna tiči v njem globoko, in ker leži, več ne vstane.
9 Even mine ally, in whom I trusted, One eating my bread, made great the heel against me,
Tudi mož, ki je živel v miru z menoj, v katerega sem zaupal, kateri je jedel mojo jed, vzdignil je peto proti meni.
10 And Thou, Jehovah, favour me, And cause me to rise, And I give recompence to them.
Ti pa, Gospod, storí mi milost, in zbúdi me, da jim povrnem.
11 By this I have known, That Thou hast delighted in me, Because my enemy shouteth not over me.
12 As to me, in mine integrity, Thou hast taken hold upon me, And causest me to stand before Thee to the age.
13 Blessed [is] Jehovah, God of Israel, From the age — and unto the age. Amen and Amen.
