< Psalmi 3 >
1 Gospod, kako so se okrepili ti, ki me vznemirjajo! Številni so tisti, ki se vzdigujejo zoper mene.
LORD, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.
2 Mnogo jih je, ki pravijo o moji duši: »Zanj ni pomoči pri Bogu.« (Sela)
Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. (Selah)
3 Toda ti, oh Gospod, si zame ščit, moja slava in tisti, ki mi dviguje mojo glavo.
But thou, O Lord, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.
4 S svojim glasom sem jokal h Gospodu in slišal me je iz svoje svete gore. (Sela)
I cried unto the Lord with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. (Selah)
5 Zleknil sem se in spal, prebudil sem se, kajti Gospod me je podpiral.
I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the Lord sustained me.
6 Ne bom se bal deset tisočev ljudi, ki so se okrog in okrog usmerili zoper mene.
I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about.
7 Vstani, oh Gospod, reši me, oh moj Bog. Kajti vse moje sovražnike si udaril po čeljusti, razbil si zobe brezbožnih.
Arise, O Lord; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.
8 Rešitev duše pripada Gospodu. Nad tvojim ljudstvom je tvoj blagoslov. (Sela)
Salvation belongeth unto the Lord: thy blessing is upon thy people. (Selah)
