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,
“A psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah.” O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry land, and it is faint without water.
2 da bi videl tvojo oblast in tvojo slavo, tako kot sem te videl v svetišču.
As I have beheld thee in the sanctuary, seeing thy strength and thy glory;
3 Ker je tvoja ljubeča skrbnost boljša kot življenje, te bodo moje ustnice hvalile.
Because thy kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee:
4 Tako te bom blagoslavljal, medtem ko živim, svoje roke bom vzdigoval v tvojem imenu.
Thus will I bless thee while I live; in thy name will I lift up my hands.
5 Moja duša bo nasičena kakor z mozgom in tolščo in moja usta te bodo hvalila z radostnimi ustnicami,
As with fat and marrow will my soul be satisfied; and with tuneful lips shall my mouth praise thee.
6 ko se te spominjam na svoji postelji in o tebi premišljujem v nočnih stražah.
When I remember thee upon my couch, I meditate on thee in the night-watches.
7 Ker si bil ti moja pomoč, zato se bom veselil v senci tvojih peruti.
Because thou hast been a help unto me; and in the shadow of thy wings will I sing rejoicingly.
8 Moja duša trdno sledi tebi; tvoja desnica me podpira.
My soul cleaveth unto following thee: me thy right hand upholdeth.
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 down into the lowest deeps of the earth.
10 Padli bodo pod mečem; delež bodo za lisice.
They shall be delivered up to the power of the sword: they shall become a prey for jackals.
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 sweareth by him shall glorify himself; for the mouth of those that speak falsehood shall be stopped.
