Psalmi 13

1 Doklej me boš pozabljal, oh Gospod? Na veke? Doklej boš svoj obraz skrival pred menoj?

For the music director. A psalm of David. How long, Lord, are you going to forget me? Forever? How long will you turn away from me?

2 Doklej se bom posvetoval v svoji duši, imel vsak dan bridkost v svojem srcu? Doklej se bo moj sovražnik poviševal nad menoj?

How long must I be in inner turmoil, feeling sad all day long? How long will my enemy be victorious over me?

3 Preudari in poslušaj me, oh Gospod, moj Bog. Razsvetli moje oči, da ne zaspim spanja smrti,

Think about this, and answer me, Lord my God. Give me back my strength, otherwise I'm going to die,

4 da ne bi moj sovražnik rekel: »Prevladal sem proti njemu« in da se tisti, ki me mučijo, ne veselijo, ko sem omajan.

and my enemy will say, “I defeated him!” and my opponents will celebrate my downfall.

5 Toda jaz sem zaupal v tvoje usmiljenje; moje srce se bo veselilo v tvoji rešitvi duše.

But I trust in your never-failing love, I will be happy because you save me.

6 Prepeval bom Gospodu, ker je radodarno ravnal z menoj.

I will sing to the Lord because he has treated me with such generosity!
