< Psalmi 21 >
1 Kralj se bo veselil v tvoji moči, oh Gospod in kako silno se bo radoval v tvoji rešitvi duše!
Yahweh, ([I], your king am glad/the king is glad) because you have caused me/him to be strong. (I rejoice/he rejoices) greatly because you have rescued me/him [from my/his enemies].
2 Dal si mu željo njegovega srca in nisi zadržal prošnje njegovih ustnic. (Sela)
You have given me/him the things that I/he [SYN] desired and you have not refused to do what I requested you to do.
3 Kajti vodiš ga z blagoslovi dobrote. Na njegovo glavo postavljaš krono iz čistega zlata.
In answer to my/his prayer, you enabled me/him to succeed and prosper. You placed a gold crown on my/his head.
4 Prosil te je življenja in ti mu ga daješ, celó dolžino dni na veke vekov.
I/He asked you to enable me/him to live [for a long time], and that is what you gave me/him, a very long [HYP] life.
5 Njegova slava v tvoji rešitvi duše je velika. Čast in veličanstvo si položil nanj.
(I am/He is) greatly honored because you have helped me/him to defeat my/his enemies; you have made me/him famous.
6 Kajti naredil si ga najbolj blagoslovljenega na veke. S svojim obličjem si ga storil silno veselega.
You will bless me/him forever, and you have caused me/him to be joyful in your presence.
7 Kajti kralj zaupa v Gospoda in zaradi usmiljenja Najvišjega ne bo omajan.
Yahweh, you are God Almighty, and (I trust/the king trusts) in you. Because you faithfully love me/him, disastrous things will never happen to me/him.
8 Tvoja roka bo zalotila vse tvoje sovražnike. Tvoja desnica bo zalotila tiste, ki te sovražijo.
You will enable me/him to capture [MTY] all my/his enemies and all those who hate me/him.
9 V času svoje jeze jih boš naredil kakor ognjeno peč. Gospod jih bo v svoji jezi pogoltnil in ogenj jih bo požrl.
When you appear, you will throw them into a fiery furnace. Because you are angry [with them], you will get rid of them; the fire will burn them up.
10 Njihov sad boš uničil z zemlje in njihovo seme izmed človeških otrok.
You will remove their children from this earth; their descendants will all disappear.
11 Kajti zoper tebe so načrtovali zlo. Domislili so si poguben naklep, ki ga niso mogli izpolniti.
They planned to harm you, but what they plan will never succeed.
12 Zato boš storil, da bodo obrnili svoj hrbet, ko boš pripravil svoje puščice na tetive proti njihovim obrazom.
You will cause them to run away [IDM] by shooting arrows at them.
13 Bodi vzvišen, Gospod, v svoji lastni moči. Tako bomo opevali in hvalili tvojo moč.
Yahweh, show us that you are very strong! When you do that, while we sing we will praise you because you are very powerful.
