Psalms 60

1 To the Overseer. — 'Concerning the Lily of Testimony,' a secret treasure of David, to teach, in his striving with Aram-Naharaim, and with Aram-Zobah, and Joab turneth back and smiteth Edom in the valley of Salt — twelve thousand. O God, Thou hadst cast us off, Thou hadst broken us — hadst been angry! — Thou dost turn back to us.

Načelniku godbe, na šestostrunje pričanja, pesem odlična Davidova, za uk. Ko se je boril sè Sirci Mezopotamijskimi, in Sirci Zobejskimi in je Joab vrnivši se pobil Edomejcev v solni dolini dvanajst tisoč. O Bog, zavrgel si nas bil, raztrgal nas, srdit si bil, povrni se nam.

2 Thou hast caused the land to tremble, Thou hast broken it, Heal its breaches, for it hath moved.

Zmajal si bil deželo, razdrobil jo; sceli kosove njene, ker omahuje.

3 Thou hast shewn Thy people a hard thing, Thou hast caused us to drink wine of trembling.

Storil si bil, da je ljudstvo tvoje čutilo trdóst, dál si nam bil piti grozo kakor vino.

4 Thou hast given to those fearing thee an ensign. To be lifted up as an ensign Because of truth. (Selah)

Dal si njim, ki se tebe bojé, zastavo, katero naj rabijo, zaradi resnice mogočno.

5 That Thy beloved ones may be drawn out, Save [with] Thy right hand, and answer us.

Da se rešijo ljubljenci tvoji; reši z desnico svojo in usliši me.

6 God hath spoken in His holiness: I exult — I apportion Shechem, And the valley of Succoth I measure,

Bog je govoril po svetosti svoji, radoval se bodem; v delež dobim Sihem, in dolino Sukotsko merim.

7 Mine [is] Gilead, and mine [is] Manasseh, And Ephraim [is] the strength of my head, Judah [is] my lawgiver,

Moj je Gilead in moj Manase in Efraim glave moje moč, Juda postavodajalec moj.

8 Moab [is] my pot for washing, over Edom I cast my shoe, Shout, concerning me, O Philistia.

Moab umivalnica moja, na Edomejca vržem čevelj svoj, nad máno, Palestina, ukaj!

9 Who doth bring me [to] a city of bulwarks? Who hath led me unto Edom?

Kdo bi me popeljal v mesto trdno, kdo bi me peljal noter do Edomeje?

10 Is it not Thou, O God? hast Thou cast us off? And dost Thou not go forth, O God, with our hosts!

Ali nisi bil ti, Bog, zavrgel nas; da nisi hodil, Bog, med našimi vojskámi?

11 Give to us help from adversity, And vain [is] the deliverance of man.

Daj nam pomoč zoper sovražnika; ker ničeva je pomoč človeška.

12 In God we do mightily, And He treadeth down our adversaries!

V Bogu delajmo vrlo, in on bode poteptal sovražnike naše.
