Psalmi 141
1 Gospod, k tebi kličem, pohiti k meni; pazljivo prisluhni mojemu glasu, ko kličem k tebi.
Yahweh, I call out to you; [please] help me quickly! Listen to me when I am calling to you.
2 Naj bo moja molitev postavljena pred teboj kakor kadilo in dvigovanje mojih rok kakor večerno žrtvovanje.
Accept my prayer as though it were incense [being burned as an offering] [SIM] to you. And accept me while I lift up my hands [to pray] to you like you accept sacrifices [that I offer to you each] evening [SIM].
3 Postavi stražo, oh Gospod, pred moja usta; čuvaj vrata mojih ustnic.
Yahweh, do not allow me to say [MTY] things that are wrong; guard my lips.
4 Mojega srca ne nagni h kakršnikoli zli stvari, da izvajam dela z ljudmi, ki počnejo krivičnost; in naj ne jem od njihovih slaščic.
Prevent me from wanting to do anything that is wrong, and from joining with wicked men when they want to do evil deeds [DOU]. Do not [even] allow me to share in eating delightful food with them!
5 Naj me pravični udari, to bo prijaznost in naj me graja; to bo odlično olje, ki ne bo zlomilo moje glave, ker bo vendar v njihovih katastrofah tudi moja molitev.
It is all right if righteous people strike/hit me or rebuke me because they are trying to act kindly toward me [to teach me to do what is right], but I do not want wicked [people] to [honor me by] anointing my head with [olive] oil; I am always praying [that you will punish them because of] the wicked deeds [that they do].
6 Kadar so njihovi sodniki premagani na kamnitih krajih, bodo slišali moje besede, kajti prijetne so.
When their rulers are thrown down from the top of rocky cliffs, people will know that what you, Yahweh, said [about them] is true.
7 Naše kosti so razkropljene ob ustih groba, kakor kadar nekdo seka in cepi les na zemlji. (Sheol h7585)
Like a log that is split and cut into small pieces [SIM], their shattered bones will be scattered [on the ground] near [other] graves. (Sheol h7585)
8 Toda moje oči so k tebi, oh Bog, Gospod; v tebi je moje trdno upanje, moje duše ne pusti zapuščene.
But Yahweh God, I [continue to] ask you [to help me]. I ask you to protect me; do not allow me to (die/be killed) [now]!
9 Varuj me pred zankami, ki so jih položili zame in [pred] pastmi delavcev krivičnosti.
[It is as though] people have set traps for me; protect me from falling into those traps, [It is as though] they have spread nets to catch me; keep me from being caught in those nets.
10 Naj zlobni padejo v svoje lastne mreže, medtem ko jaz istočasno pobegnem.
I desire that wicked [people] will fall into the traps they have set [to catch me] while I escape [from them].
