Psalmaro 30

1 Psalmo-kanto ĉe inaŭguro de la Domo; de David. Mi gloros Vin alte, ho Eternulo, Ĉar Vi levis min kaj Vi ne lasis miajn malamikojn triumfi super mi.

Yahweh, I praise you because you rescued me. You did not allow [me to die], [with the result that] my enemies could gloat/rejoice.

2 Ho Eternulo, mia Dio, mi vokis al Vi, Kaj Vi min sanigis.

Yahweh, my God, I called out for you to help [me when I was ill], and you healed me.

3 Ho Eternulo, Vi ellevis el Ŝeol mian animon; Vi vivigis min, ke mi ne iru en la tombon. (Sheol h7585)

You saved/restored me when I was dying [MTY]. I was nearly dead, but you caused me to get well again. (Sheol h7585)

4 Kantu al la Eternulo, ho Liaj piuloj, Kaj gloru Lian sanktan nomon.

All you who belong to Yahweh, sing praise to him! Think about what [God], the holy one, has done, and thank him!

5 Ĉar nur momenton daŭras Lia kolero, Sed tutan vivon daŭras Lia favoro; Vespere povas esti ploro, Sed matene venos ĝojego.

When he becomes angry, he is angry for only a very short time [HYP], but he is good [to us] all of our life. We may cry during the night, but the next morning we will be joyful.

6 Kaj mi diris en la tempo de mia feliĉo: Mi neniam falos.

As for me, when I had no troubles, I said [to myself], “No one will defeat me!”

7 Ho Eternulo, per Via favoro Vi starigis mian monton fortike; Sed kiam Vi kaŝis Vian vizaĝon, mi konfuziĝis.

Yahweh, because you were good to me, at first you caused me to be safe [as though I was inside] [MET] a mountain. But then [I became ill, and I thought that] you had turned away from me, and I became afraid.

8 Al Vi, ho Eternulo, mi vokis, Kaj al la Eternulo mi preĝis:

[Then] I called out to you, and I pleaded for you [to help me].

9 Kion utilos mia sango, se mi iros en la tombon? Ĉu gloros Vin polvo? ĉu ĝi aŭdigos Vian veron?

[I said], “Yahweh, (what will you gain if I die?/ you won’t gain anything if I die) [MTY]. (In what way will it benefit you?/it won’t benefit you at all) if I go to the place where the dead people are [RHQ]. Dead people are certainly not able to praise you [RHQ], and they are not able to tell others that you are trustworthy [RHQ]!

10 Aŭskultu, ho Eternulo, kaj korfavoru min; Ho Eternulo, estu helpanto al mi.

Yahweh, listen to me, and be merciful to me! Yahweh, help me!”

11 Vi anstataŭigis al mi mian plendon per danco; Vi deprenis de mi mian sakaĵon kaj zonis min per ĝojo,

But [now you have healed me], and you have caused me to change from being sad to dancing [joyfully]. You have taken away the clothes that showed that I was very sad and you have given me clothes that showed that I was [very] joyful.

12 Por ke mia animo kantu al Vi kaj ne silentiĝu. Ho Eternulo, mia Dio, eterne mi Vin gloros.

So I will not be silent; I will sing out [loudly] to praise you. Yahweh, you are my God, and I will thank you forever.
