Psalmi 34
1 Ob vseh časih bom blagoslavljal Gospoda, njegova hvala bo nenehno na mojih ustih.
I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
2 Moja duša bo storila svoje bahanje v Gospodu. Ponižni bodo o tem slišali in bodo veseli.
My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.
3 Oh poveličujte z menoj Gospoda in skupaj poveličujmo njegovo ime.
O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together.
4 Iskal sem Gospoda in me je uslišal ter me osvobodil pred vsemi mojimi strahovi.
I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.
5 Pogledali so k njemu in bili ožarjeni in njihovi obrazi niso bili osramočeni.
They looked to him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed.
6 Ta revež je zajokal in Gospod ga je uslišal ter ga rešil pred vsemi njegovimi težavami.
This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.
7 Gospodov angel tabori okoli teh, ki se ga bojijo in jih osvobaja.
The angel of the LORD encamps round about them that fear him, and delivers them.
8 Oh okusite in vidite, da je Gospod dober. Blagoslovljen je človek, ki zaupa vanj.
O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusts in him.
9 Oh bojte se Gospoda, vi njegovi sveti, kajti nič ne manjka tem, ki se ga bojijo.
O fear the LORD, you his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.
10 Mladim levom primanjkuje in trpijo lakoto, toda tistim, ki iščejo Gospoda, ne bo manjkala nobena dobra stvar.
The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the LORD shall not want any good thing.
11 Pridite, otroci, prisluhnite mi. Strahu Gospodovega vas bom učil.
Come, you children, listen to me: I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
12 Kakšen človek je tisti, ki želi življenje in ljubi mnoge dneve, da bi lahko videl dobro?
What man is he that desires life, and loves many days, that he may see good?
13 Zadržuj svoj jezik pred zlom in svoje ustnice od govorjenja zvijače.
Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking guile.
14 Odidi od zla in delaj dobro, išči mir in ga zasleduj.
Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.
15 Gospodove oči so na pravičnih in njegova ušesa so odprta k njihovemu klicanju.
The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous, and his ears are open to their cry.
16 Gospodovo obličje je zoper te, ki delajo zlo, da z zemlje iztrebi spomin na njih.
The face of the LORD is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
17 Pravični kličejo in Gospod uslišuje ter jih osvobaja iz vseh njihovih stisk.
The righteous cry, and the LORD hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles.
18 Gospod je blizu tem, ki so zlomljenega srca in rešuje takšne, ki so skesanega duha.
The LORD is near to them that are of a broken heart; and saves such as be of a contrite spirit.
19 Mnoge so stiske pravičnega, toda Gospod ga osvobaja iz njih vseh.
Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivers him out of them all.
20 Varuje vse njegove kosti niti ena izmed njih ni zlomljena.
He keeps all his bones: not one of them is broken.
21 Zlo bo pokončalo zlobnega in tisti, ki sovražijo pravične, bodo zapuščeni.
Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.
22 Gospod odkupuje dušo svojih služabnikov in nobeden od teh, ki zaupajo vanj, ne bo zapuščen.
The LORD redeems the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate.
