< Psalmi 116 >

1 Ljubim Gospoda, ker je slišal moj glas in moje ponižne prošnje.
I love the LORD, because he listens to my voice, and my cries for mercy.
2 Ker je k meni nagnil svoje uho, zato bom klical k njemu, dokler živim.
Because he has turned his ear to me, therefore I will call on him as long as I live.
3 Obdale so me bridkosti smrti in bolečine pekla so me prijele; spoznal sem stisko in bridkost. (Sheol h7585)
The cords of death surrounded me, the pains of Sheol got a hold of me. I found trouble 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: "LORD, I beg you, deliver my soul."
5 Milostljiv je Gospod in pravičen; da, naš Bog je usmiljen.
The LORD is Gracious and righteous. Yes, our God is merciful.
6 Gospod varuje preprostega; ponižan sem bil in pomagal mi je.
The LORD preserves the simple. I was brought low, and he saved me.
7 Vrni se k svojemu počitku, oh moja duša, kajti Gospod radodarno postopa s teboj.
Return to your rest, 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 you have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.
9 Hodil bom pred Gospodom v deželi živih.
I will walk before the LORD in the land of the living.
10 Verujem, zato sem rekel: »Bil sem silno prizadet.«
I believed, therefore I said, "I am greatly afflicted."
11 V svoji naglici sem rekel: »Vsi ljudje so lažnivci.«
I said in my haste, "All men are liars."
12 Kaj naj bi vrnil Gospodu za vse njegove koristi do mene?
What will I give to the LORD for all his benefits toward me?
13 Vzel bom čašo rešitve duše in klical h Gospodovemu imenu.
I will take the cup of salvation, and call on 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, yes, 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 faithful ones.
16 Oh Gospod, zares sem tvoj služabnik; tvoj služabnik sem in sin tvoje pomočnice; ti si odvezal moje vezi.
LORD, truly I am your servant. I am your servant, the son of your handmaid. You have freed me from my chains.
17 Daroval ti bom žrtev zahvaljevanja in klical bom h Gospodovemu imenu.
I will offer to you the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call on 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, yes, 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. Praise the LORD.
