Psalmi 61

1 Sliši moj klic, oh Bog, prisluhni moji molitvi.

Sh'ma ·Hear obey· my cry, God. Listen to my prayer.

2 Od konca zemlje bom klical k tebi, ko je moje srce preplavljeno. Vôdi me k skali, ki je višja kakor jaz.

From the end of the earth, I will call to you, when my heart is overwhelmed. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

3 Kajti zame si bil zatočišče in močna trdnjava pred sovražnikom.

For you have been a refuge for me, a strong tower from the enemy.

4 V tvojem šotorskem svetišču bom ostal na veke. Zaupal bom v skrivališče tvojih peruti. (Sela)

I will dwell in your tent forever. I will take refuge in the shelter of your wings. (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·.

5 Kajti ti, oh Bog, si uslišal moje zaobljube; dal si mi dediščino tistih, ki se bojijo tvojega imena.

For you, God, have sh'ma ·heard obeyed· my vows. You have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.

6 Kralju boš podaljšal življenje in njegova leta kakor mnoge rodove.

You will prolong the king’s life; his years shall be for generations.

7 Pred Bogom bo on ostal na veke. O pripravi usmiljenje in resnico, ki ga lahko varuje.

He shall be enthroned in God’s presence forever. Appoint your chesed ·loving-kindness· and truth, that they may preserve him.

8 Tako bom na veke prepeval hvalo tvojemu imenu, da bom lahko dnevno opravljal svoje zaobljube.

So I will sing zahmar ·musical praise· to your name forever, that I may fulfill my vows daily.
