Psalmi 38
1 Oh Gospod, ne oštevaj me v svojem besu niti me ne karaj v svojem silnem nezadovoljstvu.
“A psalm of David. To bring to remembrance.” O LORD! rebuke me not in thy wrath, Nor chasten me in thy hot displeasure!
2 Kajti tvoje puščice trdno tičijo v meni in tvoja roka me boleče pritiska.
For thine arrows have deeply pierced me, And thy hand hath been heavy upon me.
3 Zaradi tvoje jeze na mojem mesu ni zdravja niti ni v mojih kosteh zaradi mojega greha nobenega počitka.
There is no soundness in my flesh, because of thine anger; Nor rest in my bones, because of my sin.
4 Kajti moje krivičnosti so presegle mojo glavo, kakor težko breme so zame pretežke.
For my iniquities have gone over my head; Like a heavy burden, they are more than I can bear.
5 Moje rane zaudarjajo in so okužene zaradi moje nespametnosti.
My wounds putrefy and are loathsome on account of my folly.
6 Zaskrbljen sem, silno sem sklonjen, ves dan hodim in žalujem.
I am bent; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.
7 Kajti moja ledja so napolnjena z gnusno boleznijo in zdravja ni na mojem mesu.
For my loins are full of burning heat, And there is no soundness in my flesh.
8 Slaboten sem in boleče zlomljen, vpil sem zaradi nemira v svojem srcu.
I am weakened and bruised exceedingly; I roar by reason of the disquietude of my heart.
9 Gospod, pred teboj je vse moje hrepenenje in moje stokanje ni skrito pred teboj.
O Lord! thou knowest all my desire, And my groaning is not hidden from thee!
10 Moje srce trepeta, moja moč me zapušča. Glede svetlobe mojih oči, je tudi ta odšla od mene.
My heart panteth; my strength faileth me; The very light of my eyes is gone from me.
11 Moji ljubi in moji prijatelji stojijo daleč stran od moje rane in moji sorodniki stojijo daleč stran.
My friends and acquaintance keep aloof from my woe, And my kinsmen stand afar off:
12 Tudi tisti, ki mi strežejo po življenju, zame postavljajo zanke in tisti, ki iščejo mojo bolečino, govorijo pogubne stvari in si ves dan domišljajo prevare.
While they who seek my life lay snares for me; They who seek my hurt threaten destruction, And meditate deceit all the day long.
13 Toda jaz, kakor gluh človek, nisem slišal in bil sem nem človek, ki ne odpira svojih ust.
But I, like a deaf man, hear not; And, like a dumb man, open not my mouth.
14 Tako sem bil človek, ki ne sliši in v čigar ustih ni opominov.
I am like one who heareth nothing, And in whose mouth is no reply.
15 Kajti vate zaupam, oh Gospod, ti boš uslišal, oh Gospod, moj Bog.
For in thee, O LORD! do I put my trust; Thou wilt hear, O Lord, my God!
16 Kajti rekel sem: » Usliši me, da se ne bi sicer veselili nad menoj. Ko moje stopalo zdrsuje, se poveličujejo proti meni.«
For I have prayed, “Let them not rejoice over me; Let them not exult at the slipping of my feet!”
17 Kajti pripravljen sem, da se zaustavim in moja bridkost je nenehno pred menoj.
For I am ready to fall, And my pain doth never leave me;
18 Kajti oznanil bom svojo krivičnost, žalosten bom zaradi svojega greha.
For I confess my iniquity, And am troubled on account of my sin.
19 Toda moji sovražniki so živi in oni so močni, in tisti, ki me krivično sovražijo, so pomnoženi.
But my enemies flourish and are strong; They who hate me without cause are multiplied.
20 Tudi tisti, ki vračajo zlo za dobro, so moji nasprotniki, ker sledim stvari, ki je dobra.
They who repay good with evil are my enemies, Because I follow that which is good.
21 Ne zapusti me, oh Gospod. Oh moj Bog, ne bodi daleč od mene.
Forsake me not, O LORD! O my God! be not far from me!
22 Podvizaj se, da mi pomagaš, oh Gospod, rešitev moje duše.
Make hast to mine aid, O Lord, my salvation!
