Psalmi 63

1 Oh Bog, ti si moj Bog, zgodaj te bom iskal. Mojo dušo žeja po tebi, moje meso hrepeni po tebi v suhi in žejni deželi, kjer ni vode,

O God, you are my God; early will I seek you: my soul thirsts for you, my flesh longs for you in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;

2 da bi videl tvojo oblast in tvojo slavo, tako kot sem te videl v svetišču.

To see your power and your glory, so as I have seen you in the sanctuary.

3 Ker je tvoja ljubeča skrbnost boljša kot življenje, te bodo moje ustnice hvalile.

Because your loving kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise you.

4 Tako te bom blagoslavljal, medtem ko živim, svoje roke bom vzdigoval v tvojem imenu.

Thus will I bless you while I live: I will lift up my hands in your name.

5 Moja duša bo nasičena kakor z mozgom in tolščo in moja usta te bodo hvalila z radostnimi ustnicami,

My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise you with joyful lips:

6 ko se te spominjam na svoji postelji in o tebi premišljujem v nočnih stražah.

When I remember you upon my bed, and meditate on you in the night watches.

7 Ker si bil ti moja pomoč, zato se bom veselil v senci tvojih peruti.

Because you have been my help, therefore in the shadow of your wings will I rejoice.

8 Moja duša trdno sledi tebi; tvoja desnica me podpira.

My soul follows hard after you: your right hand upholds me.

9 Toda tisti, ki iščejo mojo dušo, da bi jo uničili, bodo šli v globočine zemlje.

But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth.

10 Padli bodo pod mečem; delež bodo za lisice.

They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.

11 Toda kralj se bo veselil v Bogu, vsak, kdor prisega z njim, bo v tem užival, toda usta teh, ki govorijo laži, bodo zamašena.

But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that swears by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.
