< Psalmi 28 >
1 K tebi hočem klicati, oh Gospod, moja skala, ne bodi molčeč do mene, da ne bi, če boš do mene molčeč, postal podoben tem, ki gredo dol v jamo.
[A Psalm] of David. Unto thee, O LORD, will I call; my rock, be not thou deaf unto me: lest, if thou be silent unto me, I become like them that go down into the pit.
2 Prisluhni glasu mojih ponižnih prošenj, ko kličem k tebi, ko svoje roke dvigujem k tvojemu svetemu oraklju.
Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle.
3 Ne odtegni me proč z zlobnimi in z delavci krivičnosti, ki svojim bližnjim govorijo mir, toda v njihovih srcih je vragolija.
Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity; which speak peace with their neighbours, but mischief is in their hearts.
4 Daj jim glede na njihova dejanja in glede na zlobnost njihovih prizadevanj. Daj jim po delu njihovih rok, povrni jim njihovo plačilo.
Give them according to their work, and according to the wickedness of their doings: give them after the operation of their hands; render to them their desert.
5 Ker ne upoštevajo Gospodovih del niti delovanja njegovih rok, jih bo uničil in jih ne bo zgradil.
Because they regard not the works of the LORD, nor the operation of his hands, he shall break them down and not build them up.
6 Blagoslovljen bodi Gospod, ker je uslišal glas mojih ponižnih prošenj.
Blessed be the LORD, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications.
7 Gospod je moja moč in moj ščit, moje srce je zaupalo vanj in pomagano mi je. Zato se moje srce silno razveseljuje in s svojo pesmijo ga bom hvalil.
The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart hath trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will praise him.
8 Gospod je njihova moč in on je rešilna moč svojemu maziljencu.
The LORD is their strength, and he is a strong hold of salvation to his anointed.
9 Reši svoje ljudstvo in blagoslavljaj svojo dediščino, tudi pasi jih in dvigni jih na veke.
Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: feed them also, and bear them up for ever.
