Psalmi 61

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

For the chief musician; on a stringed instrument. A psalm of David. Hear my cry, God; attend 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 ends of the earth will I call to you when my heart is faint; 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)

Let me live in your tabernacle forever! Let me take refuge under the shelter of your wings. (Selah)

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

For you, God, have heard my vows, you have given me the inheritance of those who honor your name.

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

You will prolong the king's life; his years will be like many generations.

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

He will remain before God forever.

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

I will sing praise to your name forever so that I may perform my vows every day.
