< Psalms 51 >
1 To the Overseer. — A Psalm of David, in the coming in unto him of Nathan the prophet, when he hath gone in unto Bath-Sheba. Favour me, O God, according to Thy kindness, According to the abundance of Thy mercies, Blot out my transgressions.
Načelniku godbe, psalm Davidov, Ko je prišel k njemu Natan prerok, potem ko se je bil sešèl z Betsebo. Milosten mi bodi, o Bog, po dobroti svoji; po obilosti svojega usmiljenja izbriši pregrehe moje.
2 Thoroughly wash me from mine iniquity, And from my sin cleanse me,
Dobro me operi krivice moje, in greha mojega očisti me.
3 For my transgressions I do know, And my sin [is] before me continually.
Ker pregrehe svoje jaz spoznavam, in greh moj biva mi vedno pred očmi.
4 Against Thee, Thee only, I have sinned, And done the evil thing in Thine eyes, So that Thou art righteous in Thy words, Thou art pure in Thy judging.
Tebi, tebi samemu sem grešil, in storil kar se zlo vidi v tvojih očeh; da se opravičiš v govorih svojih; čist si, kader ti sodiš.
5 Lo, in iniquity I have been brought forth, And in sin doth my mother conceive me.
Glej, v krivici sem storjen in v grehu me je spočela mati moja.
6 Lo, truth Thou hast desired in the inward parts, And in the hidden part Wisdom Thou causest me to know.
Glej, resnice se raduješ v osrčji; in skrivaj si mi razodél modrost svojo.
7 Thou cleansest me with hyssop and I am clean, Washest me, and than snow I am whiter.
Očisti me z isopom, da bodem čist; operi me, da bodem bel nad sneg.
8 Thou causest me to hear joy and gladness, Thou makest joyful bones Thou hast bruised.
Stóri, da čujem veselje in radost, radujejo se kosti, katere si potrl.
9 Hide Thy face from my sin. And all mine iniquities blot out.
Skrij srdito obličje svoje grehom mojim, in vse krivice moje izbriši.
10 A clean heart prepare for me, O God, And a right spirit renew within me.
Srce mi čisto ustvari, Bog, in duh krepak ponovi v meni.
11 Cast me not forth from Thy presence, And Thy Holy Spirit take not from me.
Ne zavrzi me izpred svojega obličja; in svojega svetega duha ne jemlji od mene nazaj.
12 Restore to me the joy of Thy salvation, And a willing spirit doth sustain me.
Daj mi nazaj veselje blaginje svoje; in z duhom blagodušnosti podpiraj me.
13 I teach transgressors Thy ways, And sinners unto Thee do return.
Učil bodem krivičnike pota tvoja, da se grešniki povrnejo k tebi.
14 Deliver me from blood, O God, God of my salvation, My tongue singeth of Thy righteousness.
Reši me krvi, o Bog, Bog blaginje moje; jezik moj naj poje pravico tvojo.
15 O Lord, my lips thou dost open, And my mouth declareth Thy praise.
Gospod, odpri moje ustne, in usta moja bodejo oznanjala hvalo tvojo.
16 For Thou desirest not sacrifice, or I give [it], Burnt-offering Thou acceptest not.
Ker ne veseliš se daritve; nočeš, da dajem žgalni dar.
17 The sacrifices of God [are] a broken spirit, A heart broken and bruised, O God, Thou dost not despise.
Daritve Božje so duh potrt; srca potrtega in pobitega, o Bog, ne zametaš.
18 Do good in Thy good pleasure with Zion, Thou dost build the walls of Jerusalem.
Oblagodari po dobri volji Sijon; sezidaj zidovje Jeruzalemsko.
19 Then Thou desirest sacrifices of righteousness, Burnt-offering, and whole burnt-offering, Then they offer bullocks on thine altar!
Tedaj se bodeš veselil daritev pravice, žgalnih in celih daritev; tedaj bodo pobožni pokladali junce na tvoj oltar.
