< Psalmi 90 >

1 Gospod, ti si bil naše bivališče za vse rodove.
A Prayer of Moses, the man of God. Lord, thou hast been our dwelling-place in all generations.
2 Preden so bile rojene gore, oziroma kadarkoli si oblikoval zemljo in zemeljski [krog], celo od večnosti do večnosti, si ti Bog.
Before the mountains were brought forth, and thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from eternity to eternity thou art God.
3 Človeka obračaš k uničenju in praviš: »Vrnite se, vi človeški otroci.«
Thou makest [mortal] man to return to dust, and sayest, Return, children of men.
4 Kajti tisoč let v tvojem pogledu je samo kakor včerajšnji dan, ki je minil in kakor straža v noči.
For a thousand years, in thy sight, are as yesterday when it is past, and [as] a watch in the night.
5 Odnašaš jih proč kakor s poplavo; oni so kakor spanec. Zjutraj so podobni travi, ki raste.
Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are [as] a sleep: in the morning they are like grass [that] groweth up:
6 Zjutraj cveti in raste, zvečer je odrezana in ovene.
In the morning it flourisheth and groweth up; in the evening it is cut down and withereth.
7 Kajti použiti smo s tvojo jezo in s tvojim besom smo zbegani.
For we are consumed by thine anger, and by thy fury are we troubled.
8 Predse si postavil naše krivičnosti, naše skrite grehe v svetlobo svojega obličja.
Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, our secret [sins] in the light of thy countenance.
9 Kajti vsi naši dnevi so minili v tvojem besu. Svoja leta smo preživeli kakor zgodbo, ki je povedana.
For all our days pass away in thy wrath: we spend our years as a [passing] thought.
10 Dni naših let je sedemdeset let in če jih je zaradi razloga moči osemdeset let, je vendarle njihova moč trud in bridkost, kajti to je kmalu odrezano in mi odletimo.
The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if, by reason of strength, they be fourscore years, yet their pride is labour and vanity, for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.
11 Kdo pozna moč tvoje jeze? Celó glede na tvoj strah, tak je tvoj bes.
Who knoweth the power of thine anger? and thy wrath according to the fear of thee?
12 Zaradi tega nas uči šteti naše dneve, da bomo svoja srca lahko posvetili modrosti.
So teach [us] to number our days, that we may acquire a wise heart.
13 Vrni se, oh Gospod, doklej? To naj te pokesa glede tvojih služabnikov.
Return, Jehovah: how long? and let it repent thee concerning thy servants.
14 Oh zgodaj nas nasiti s svojim usmiljenjem, da se bomo lahko veselili in bomo veseli vse naše dni.
Satisfy us early with thy loving-kindness; that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days.
15 Stôri nas vesele glede na dneve, v katerih si nas prizadel in leta, v katerih smo videli zlo.
Make us glad according to the days [wherein] thou hast afflicted us, according to the years [wherein] we have seen evil.
16 Naj se tvoje delo pokaže tvojim služabnikom in tvoja slava njihovim otrokom.
Let thy work appear unto thy servants, and thy majesty unto their sons.
17 Nad nami pa naj bo lepota Gospoda, našega Boga. Utrdi delo naših rok nad nami; da, delo naših rok, utrdi ga.
And let the beauty of Jehovah our God be upon us; and establish thou the work of our hands upon us: yea, the work of our hands, establish thou it.
