< Psalmi 132 >

1 Gospod, spomni se Davida in vseh njegovih stisk,
Yahweh, do not forget [King] David and all the hardships/troubles he endured!
2 kako je prisegel Gospodu in se zaobljubil mogočnemu Jakobovemu Bogu:
He made a solemn promise to you, the mighty God whom [our ancestor] Jacob [worshiped].
3 »Zagotovo ne bom prišel v šotorsko svetišče svoje hiše niti šel gor v svojo posteljo,
He said, “I will not go home, I will not [rest] on my bed,
4 svojim očem ne bom dal spanja ali dremanja svojim vekam,
I will not sleep at all
5 dokler ne najdem kraja za Gospoda, prebivališča za mogočnega Jakobovega Boga.«
until I build a place for Yahweh, a home for the mighty God whom Jacob [worshiped].”
6 Glej, slišali smo o tem v Efráti, našli smo to na gozdnih poljih.
In Bethlehem we heard news about the sacred chest. We [went and] found it in the fields of Jearim [city, and we took it to Jerusalem].
7 Šli bomo v njegova šotorska svetišča, oboževali bomo ob njegovi pručki.
[Later we said], “Let’s go to the temple of Yahweh [in Jerusalem]; let’s worship [there] in front of the throne [where he sits].”
8 Vstani, oh Gospod, v svoj počitek, ti in skrinja tvoje moči.
Yahweh, come to the place where you live eternally, to the place where your sacred chest is, to that place that shows that you are very powerful.
9 Naj bodo tvoji duhovniki oblečeni s pravičnostjo in tvoji sveti naj vzklikajo od veselja.
I want/desire that the righteous behavior of your priests [will always be evident], [just like the beautiful] robes that they wear [MET], and that your people will [always] shout joyfully.
10 Zaradi svojega služabnika Davida ne obrni obličja proč od svojega maziljenca.
You chose David to serve you [as king of Israel]; do not reject/abandon him!
11 Gospod je Davidu prisegel z resnico; ne bo se odvrnil od nje: »Od sadu tvojega telesa bom postavil na tvoj prestol.
Yahweh, you made a solemn promise to David, a promise that you will not break. You said, “I will cause your descendants to rule [MTY] as kings like you.
12 Če se bodo tvoji otroci držali moje zaveze in mojega pričevanja, ki jih ga bom jaz učil, bodo tudi njihovi otroci sedeli na tvojem prestolu na vékomaj.«
If they keep my agreement with them and obey [all] the commands that I will give them, the line of kings descended from you will never end.”
13 Kajti Gospod je izbral Sion; zaželel si ga je za svoje prebivališče.
Yahweh has chosen Jerusalem; he has wanted to make that city his home;
14 »To je moj počitek na veke; tu bom prebival, ker sem si ga zaželel.
he said, “This is the city where I will live forever [DOU]; this is the place where I wanted to stay.
15 Obilno bom blagoslavljal njegovo preskrbo, njegove uboge bom nasičeval s kruhom.
I will give to the people of Jerusalem all that they need; I will give [enough] food [even] to satisfy the poor people there.
16 Prav tako bom njegove duhovnike oblekel z rešitvijo duš in njegovi sveti bodo glasno vzklikali od veselja.
I will cause the priests [to behave in a manner worthy of] being ones whom I have saved; [that will be as evident as the beautiful] robes that they wear [MET]; and all my people who live there will shout joyfully.
17 Tam bom storil Davidovemu rogu, da vzbrsti; odredil sem svetilko za svojega maziljenca.
There [in Jerusalem] I will cause one of David’s descendants [MET] to become a great king; he also will be my chosen king, and he will be [like a bright] lamp [MET] [that shines continually].
18 Njegove sovražnike bom oblekel s sramoto, toda na njem samem bo cvetela njegova krona.«
I will [defeat his] enemies and cause them to be very ashamed/disgraced; but the crown that my king wears will [always] shine.”
