< Psalmi 66 >
1 Naredite radosten glas Bogu, vse ve dežele,
For the Chief Musician. A song. A Psalm. Make a joyful shout to God, all the earth!
2 pojte čast njegovemu imenu, njegovo hvalo naredite veličastno.
Sing to the glory of his name! Offer glory and praise!
3 Recite Bogu: »Kako strašen si v svojih delih! Zaradi veličine tvoje moči se ti bodo podredili tvoji sovražniki.
Tell God, “How awesome are your deeds! Through the greatness of your power, your enemies submit themselves to you.
4 Vsa zemlja te bo oboževala in ti prepevala, prepevali bodo k tvojemu imenu.« (Sela)
All the earth will worship you, and will sing to you; they will sing to your name.” (Selah)
5 Pridite in glejte dela Boga. Strašen je v svojem delovanju do človeških otrok.
Come, and see God’s deeds— awesome work on behalf of the children of men.
6 Morje je spremenil v kopno zemljo. Skozi rečni tok so šli peš, tam smo se veselili v njem.
He turned the sea into dry land. They went through the river on foot. There, we rejoiced in him.
7 S svojo močjo vlada na veke, njegove oči opazujejo narode; naj se uporni ne povišujejo. (Sela)
He rules by his might forever. His eyes watch the nations. Do not let the rebellious rise up against him. (Selah)
8 Oh blagoslavljajte našega Boga, ve ljudstva in storite, da se sliši glas njegove hvale,
Praise our God, you peoples! Make the sound of his praise heard,
9 ki našo dušo drži pri življenju in ne pusti, da bi bila naša stopala premaknjena.
who preserves our life among the living, and does not allow our feet to be moved.
10 Kajti ti, oh Bog, si nas potrdil, preizkusil si nas, kakor je preizkušeno srebro.
For you, God, have tested us. You have refined us, as silver is refined.
11 Privedel si nas v mrežo, na naša ledja polagaš stisko.
You brought us into prison. You laid a burden on our backs.
12 Ljudem si storil, da jahajo nad našimi glavami. Šli smo skozi ogenj in skozi vodo, toda ti si nas privedel v premožen kraj.
You allowed men to ride over our heads. We went through fire and through water, but you brought us to the place of abundance.
13 V tvojo hišo bom šel z žgalnimi daritvami, izpolnil ti bom svoje zaobljube,
I will come into your temple with burnt offerings. I will pay my vows to you,
14 ki so jih izrekle moje ustnice in spregovorila moja usta, ko sem bil v stiski.
which my lips promised, and my mouth spoke, when I was in distress.
15 Daroval ti bom žgalne daritve pitancev s kadilom ovnov, daroval ti bom bikce s kozli. (Sela)
I will offer to you burnt offerings of fat animals, with the offering of rams, I will offer bulls with goats. (Selah)
16 Pridite in prisluhnite vsi vi, ki se bojite Boga in oznanil vam bom, kaj je storil za mojo dušo.
Come and hear, all you who fear God. I will declare what he has done for my soul.
17 K njemu sem klical s svojimi usti in povzdignjen je bil z mojim jezikom.
I cried to him with my mouth. He was extolled with my tongue.
18 Če v svojem srcu upoštevam krivičnost, me Gospod ne bo uslišal,
If I cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened.
19 toda Bog me je resnično uslišal, prisluhnil je glasu moje molitve.
But most certainly, God has listened. He has heard the voice of my prayer.
20 Blagoslovljen bodi Bog, ki ni odklonil moje molitve niti svojega usmiljenja od mene.
Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer, nor his loving kindness from me.
