Psalmi 116
1 Ljubim Gospoda, ker je slišal moj glas in moje ponižne prošnje.
Alleluia. I am well pleased, because the Lord will listen to the voice of my supplication.
2 Ker je k meni nagnil svoje uho, zato bom klical k njemu, dokler živim.
Because he has inclined his ear to me, therefore will I call upon him while I live.
3 Obdale so me bridkosti smrti in bolečine pekla so me prijele; spoznal sem stisko in bridkost. (Sheol h7585)
The pangs of death compassed me; the dangers of hell found me: I found affliction and sorrow. (Sheol h7585)
4 Potem sem klical h Gospodovemu imenu: »Oh Gospod, rotim te, osvobodi mojo dušo.«
Then I called on the name of the Lord: O Lord, deliver my soul.
5 Milostljiv je Gospod in pravičen; da, naš Bog je usmiljen.
The Lord is merciful and righteous; yes, our God has pity.
6 Gospod varuje preprostega; ponižan sem bil in pomagal mi je.
The Lord preserves the simple: I was brought low, and he delivered me.
7 Vrni se k svojemu počitku, oh moja duša, kajti Gospod radodarno postopa s teboj.
Return to your rest, O my soul; for the Lord has dealt bountifully with you.
8 Kajti mojo dušo si osvobodil pred smrtjo, moje oči pred solzami in moja stopala pred padcem.
For he has delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.
9 Hodil bom pred Gospodom v deželi živih.
I shall be well-pleasing before the Lord in the land of the living.
10 Verujem, zato sem rekel: »Bil sem silno prizadet.«
Alleluia. I believed, therefore I have spoken: but I was greatly afflicted.
11 V svoji naglici sem rekel: »Vsi ljudje so lažnivci.«
And I said in mine amazement, Every man is a liar.
12 Kaj naj bi vrnil Gospodu za vse njegove koristi do mene?
What shall I render to the Lord for all the things wherein he has rewarded me?
13 Vzel bom čašo rešitve duše in klical h Gospodovemu imenu.
I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the Lord.
14 Svoje zaobljube bom izpolnil Gospodu sedaj, v prisotnosti vsega njegovega ljudstva.
I will pay my vows to the Lord, in the presence of all his people.
15 Dragocena je v Gospodovih očeh smrt njegovih svetih.
Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.
16 Oh Gospod, zares sem tvoj služabnik; tvoj služabnik sem in sin tvoje pomočnice; ti si odvezal moje vezi.
O Lord, I am your servant; I am your servant, and the son of your handmaid: you have burst by bonds asunder.
17 Daroval ti bom žrtev zahvaljevanja in klical bom h Gospodovemu imenu.
I will offer to you the sacrifice of praise, and will call upon the name of the Lord.
18 Svoje zaobljube bom izpolnil Gospodu sedaj, v prisotnosti vsega njegovega ljudstva,
I will pay my vows to the Lord, in the presence of all his people,
19 na dvorih Gospodove hiše, v tvoji sredi, oh Jeruzalem. Hvalite Gospoda.
in the courts of the Lord's house, in the midst of you, Jerusalem.
