< Psalmi 3 >
1 Gospod, kako so se okrepili ti, ki me vznemirjajo! Številni so tisti, ki se vzdigujejo zoper mene.
[A Psalm by David, when he fled from Absalom his son.] YHWH, how my adversaries have increased. Many rise up against me.
2 Mnogo jih je, ki pravijo o moji duši: »Zanj ni pomoči pri Bogu.« (Sela)
Many there are who say of my soul, "There is no salvation for him in God." (Selah)
3 Toda ti, oh Gospod, si zame ščit, moja slava in tisti, ki mi dviguje mojo glavo.
But you, YHWH, are a shield around me, my glory, and the one who lifts up my head.
4 S svojim glasom sem jokal h Gospodu in slišal me je iz svoje svete gore. (Sela)
I cried out to YHWH with my voice, and he answered me from his holy mountain. (Selah)
5 Zleknil sem se in spal, prebudil sem se, kajti Gospod me je podpiral.
I lay down and slept. I awoke, for YHWH sustains me.
6 Ne bom se bal deset tisočev ljudi, ki so se okrog in okrog usmerili zoper mene.
I am not afraid of ten thousands of people who have set themselves against me on every side.
7 Vstani, oh Gospod, reši me, oh moj Bog. Kajti vse moje sovražnike si udaril po čeljusti, razbil si zobe brezbožnih.
Arise, YHWH. Save me, my God. For you slap all my enemies in the face. You break the teeth of the wicked.
8 Rešitev duše pripada Gospodu. Nad tvojim ljudstvom je tvoj blagoslov. (Sela)
Salvation belongs to YHWH. Your blessing is upon your people. (Selah)
