< Psalmi 41 >
1 Blagoslovljen je, kdor misli na ubogega. Gospod ga bo osvobodil v času stiske.
For the chief musician. A psalm of David. Blessed is he who is concerned for the weak; in the day of trouble, Yahweh will rescue him.
2 Gospod ga bo varoval in ga ohranil živega in blagoslovljen bo na zemlji in ti ga nočeš izročiti volji njegovih sovražnikov.
Yahweh will preserve him and keep him alive, and he will be blessed on the earth; Yahweh will not turn him over to the will of his enemies.
3 Gospod ga bo okrepil na postelji slabljenja. Zamenjal boš vso njegovo posteljo v njegovi bolezni.
Yahweh will support him on the bed of suffering; you will make his bed of sickness into a bed of healing.
4 Rekel sem: » Gospod, bodi mi usmiljen. Ozdravi mojo dušo, kajti grešil sem zoper tebe.«
I said, “Yahweh, have mercy on me! Heal me, for I have sinned against you.”
5 Moji sovražniki zlobno govorijo o meni: »Kdaj bo umrl in njegovo ime izgine?«
My enemies speak evil against me, saying, 'When will he die and his name perish?'
6 Če pride, da me vidi, govori prazne reči. Njegovo srce k sebi zbira krivičnost; ko hodi proč od bivališča, to pripoveduje.
If my enemy comes to see me, he says worthless things; his heart gathers up my disaster for itself; when he goes away from me, he tells others about it.
7 Vsi, ki me sovražijo, skupaj šepetajo zoper mene, zoper mene snujejo mojo bolečino.
All who hate me whisper together against me; against me they hope for my hurt.
8 Zla bolezen, pravijo, se ga trdno drži, in sedaj, ko leži, ne bo več vstal.
They say, “An evil disease holds on tightly to him; now that he is lying down, he will rise up no more.”
9 Da, moj lastni zaupni prijatelj, v katerega sem zaupal, ki je jedel od mojega kruha, je dvignil svojo peto zoper mene.
Indeed, even my own close friend, in whom I trusted, who ate my bread, has lifted up his heel against me.
10 Toda ti, oh Gospod, mi bodi usmiljen in me dvigni, da jim lahko poplačam.
But you, Yahweh, have mercy on me and raise me up so that I may pay them back.
11 Po tem spoznam, da me ti podpiraš, ker moj sovražnik ne slavi zmage nad menoj.
By this I know that you delight in me, for my enemy does not triumph over me.
12 Kar se mene tiče, me podpiraš v moji neokrnjenosti in me postavljaš pred svoje obličje na veke.
As for me, you support me in my integrity and will keep me before your face forever.
13 Blagoslovljen bodi Gospod, Izraelov Bog, od večnosti in do večnosti. Amen in Amen.
May Yahweh, the God of Israel be praised from everlasting to everlasting. Amen and Amen.
