Psalms 90
1 BOOK IV A Prayer of Moses the man of God. Lord, Thou hast been our dwelling-place in all generations.
Gospod, ti si bil naše bivališče za vse rodove.
2 Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever Thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, Thou art God.
Preden so bile rojene gore, oziroma kadarkoli si oblikoval zemljo in zemeljski [krog], celo od večnosti do večnosti, si ti Bog.
3 Thou turnest man to contrition; and sayest: 'Return, ye children of men.'
Človeka obračaš k uničenju in praviš: »Vrnite se, vi človeški otroci.«
4 For a thousand years in Thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
Kajti tisoč let v tvojem pogledu je samo kakor včerajšnji dan, ki je minil in kakor straža v noči.
5 Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep; in the morning they are like grass which groweth up.
Odnašaš jih proč kakor s poplavo; oni so kakor spanec. Zjutraj so podobni travi, ki raste.
6 In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up; in the evening it is cut down, and withereth.
Zjutraj cveti in raste, zvečer je odrezana in ovene.
7 For we are consumed in Thine anger, and by Thy wrath are we hurried away.
Kajti použiti smo s tvojo jezo in s tvojim besom smo zbegani.
8 Thou hast set our iniquities before Thee, our secret sins in the light of Thy countenance.
Predse si postavil naše krivičnosti, naše skrite grehe v svetlobo svojega obličja.
9 For all our days are passed away in Thy wrath; we bring our years to an end as a tale that is told.
Kajti vsi naši dnevi so minili v tvojem besu. Svoja leta smo preživeli kakor zgodbo, ki je povedana.
10 The days of our years are threescore years and ten, or even by reason of strength fourscore years; yet is their pride but travail and vanity; for it is speedily gone, and we fly away.
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.
11 Who knoweth the power of Thine anger, and Thy wrath according to the fear that is due unto Thee?
Kdo pozna moč tvoje jeze? Celó glede na tvoj strah, tak je tvoj bes.
12 So teach us to number our days, that we may get us a heart of wisdom.
Zaradi tega nas uči šteti naše dneve, da bomo svoja srca lahko posvetili modrosti.
13 Return, O LORD; how long? And let it repent Thee concerning Thy servants.
Vrni se, oh Gospod, doklej? To naj te pokesa glede tvojih služabnikov.
14 O satisfy us in the morning with Thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
Oh zgodaj nas nasiti s svojim usmiljenjem, da se bomo lahko veselili in bomo veseli vse naše dni.
15 Make us glad according to the days wherein Thou hast afflicted us, according to the years wherein we have seen evil.
Stôri nas vesele glede na dneve, v katerih si nas prizadel in leta, v katerih smo videli zlo.
16 Let Thy work appear unto Thy servants, and Thy glory upon their children.
Naj se tvoje delo pokaže tvojim služabnikom in tvoja slava njihovim otrokom.
17 And let the graciousness of the Lord our God be upon us; establish Thou also upon us the work of our hands; yea, the work of our hands establish Thou it.
Nad nami pa naj bo lepota Gospoda, našega Boga. Utrdi delo naših rok nad nami; da, delo naših rok, utrdi ga.
