Psalms 64

1 For the Leader. A Psalm of David. Hear my voice, O God, in my complaint; preserve my life from the terror of the enemy.

Načelniku godbe, psalm Davidov. Čuj, o Bog, glas moj, ko premišljujem; strahu sovražnikovega varuj življenje moje.

2 Hide me from the council of evil-doers; from the tumult of the workers of iniquity;

Skrivaj me skrivnemu naklepu hudobnih, ropotanju njih, ki delajo krivico:

3 Who have whet their tongue like a sword, and have aimed their arrow, a poisoned word;

Ki brusijo kakor meč jezik svoj, napenjajo kakor pušico svojo bridko besedo.

4 That they may shoot in secret places at the blameless; suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.

S kopjem napadajo poštenjaka iz zakotja; nenadoma ga napadajo s kopjem in se ne bojé.

5 They encourage one another in an evil matter; they converse of laying snares secretly; they ask, who would see them.

Potrjujejo si reč hudobno; o skrivanji zank govoré; pravijo: Kdo bi jih videl?

6 They search out iniquities, they have accomplished a diligent search; even in the inward thought of every one, and the deep heart.

Preiskujejo krivice; oslabeli smo po tem, kar so tako zvito preiskali; tako globoko je osrčje moža in srce.

7 But God doth shoot at them with an arrow suddenly; thence are their wounds.

Ali ko jih bode Bog napadel s kopjem, pušica nagla bodejo njih udarci.

8 So they make their own tongue a stumbling unto themselves; all that see them shake the head.

In storili bodejo, da sè samim jezikom svojim udarijo sebe; razkropljeni se bodejo spustili v beg, kdorkoli jih bode videl.

9 And all men fear; and they declare the work of God, and understand His doing.

Katerikoli pa ljudjé se bojé, oznanjali bodo delo Božje in dejanje njegovo stavili pred óči.

10 The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall take refuge in Him; and all the upright in heart shall glory.

Veselil se bode pravični v Gospodu, in pribežal k njemu; ponašali se bodo vsi, ki so pravega srca.
