Psalmi 64
1 Poslušaj moj glas, oh Bog, v moji molitvi, varuj moje življenje strahu pred sovražnikom.
For the chief musician. A psalm of David. Hear my voice, God, listen to my complaint; preserve my life from fear of my enemies.
2 Skrij me pred skrivnim načrtom hudobnih, pred vstajo delavcev krivičnosti,
Hide me from the secret plotting of evildoers, from the commotion of the doers of iniquity.
3 ki brusijo svoj jezik kakor meč in upogibajo svoje loke, da bi streljali svoje puščice, celó grenke besede,
They have sharpened their tongues like swords; they have aimed their arrows, bitter words,
4 da bi lahko na skrivnem streljali na popolnega. Nenadoma streljajo nanj in se ne bojijo.
so that they may shoot from secret places at someone who is innocent; suddenly they shoot at him and fear nothing.
5 Med seboj se hrabrijo v zli zadevi. Na skrivaj se posvetujejo o nastavljanju zank; pravijo: »Kdo jih bo videl?«
They encourage themselves in an evil plan; they consult privately together in order to set traps; they say, “Who will see us?”
6 Preiskujejo krivičnosti, dovršijo marljivo iskanje. Notranja misel vsakogar izmed njih in srce, oboje je globoko.
They invent sinful plans; “We have finished,” they say, “a careful plan.” The inner thoughts and hearts of man are deep.
7 Toda Bog bo nanje streljal s puščico, nenadoma bodo ranjeni.
But God will shoot them; suddenly they will be wounded with his arrows.
8 Tako bodo dosegli, da bo njihov lastni jezik padel nanje. Vsi, ki jih vidijo, bodo zbežali stran.
They will be made to stumble, since their own tongues are against them; all who see them will wag their heads.
9 Vsi ljudje se bodo bali in bodo oznanjali Božje delo, kajti o njegovem dejanju bodo modro preudarjali.
All people will fear and will declare God's deeds. They will wisely think about what he has done.
10 Pravični bodo veseli v Gospodu in bodo zaupali vanj in vsi iskreni v srcu bodo ponosni.
The righteous will be glad about Yahweh and will take refuge in him; all the upright in heart will take pride in him.
