< Psalmi 62 >

1 Načelniku godbe v Jedutunu, psalm Davidov. Samo v Bogu počiva duša moja, od njega je moja blaginja.
“For the leader of the music of the Jeduthunites, A psalm of David.” Truly my soul resteth on God alone; From him cometh my deliverance!
2 Samo on je skala moja in blaginja moja; grad moj, ne omahnem mnogo.
He alone is my rock and my salvation; He is my safeguard, I shall not wholly fall!
3 Doklej bodete snovali težave nad moža? pobiti bodete vsi, podobni nagnenemu zidu, ograji omajani.
How long will ye continue to assault a single man? How long will ye all seek to destroy me, Like a bending wall, or a tottering fence?
4 Samo z visokosti njegove pahniti ga ukrepljejo, veselé se laži; z usti svojimi blagoslavljajo, znotraj v sebi pa preklinjajo hudo.
They study how to cast me down from my eminence; They delight in falsehood; They bless with their mouths, but in their hearts they curse.
5 Samo v Bogu počivaj, duša moja, ker od njega je upanje moje.
My soul, rest thou on God alone, For from him cometh my hope!
6 Samo on je skala moja in blaginja moja, grad moj; ne omahnem.
He alone is my rock and my salvation; He is my safeguard, —I shall not fall.
7 V Bogu je blaginja moja in slava moja; krepka skala moja, pribežališče moje je v Bogu.
From God cometh my help and my glory: My strong rock, my refuge, is God.
8 Zaupajte mu vsak čas, o ljudstvo; pred njim izlijte srce svoje: Bog nam je v pribežališče.
Trust in him at all times, ye people! Pour out your hearts before him! God is our refuge!
9 Sama ničevost so prostega človeka otroci, laž so odličnega moža otroci; na tehtnico vkup položeni, poskočili bi nad ničevost.
Truly men of low degree are vanity, And men of high degree are a lie; Placed in the balance, They are all lighter than vanity.
10 Ne zaupajte zatiranju, in zaradi ropa ne bodite prevzetni; ako se množi bogastvo, ne navezujte nanj srca.
Trust not in extortion; Place no vain hopes in rapine! If riches increase, set not your heart upon them!
11 Enkrat je govoril Bog, dvakrat sem slišal isto, da je moč Božja,
Once hath God promised, twice have I heard it, That power belongeth unto God.
12 In da je milost tvoja, Gospod, da bodeš ti povrnil vsakemu po delu svojem.
To thee also, O Lord! belongeth mercy; For thou dost render to every man according to his work!
