Psalms 3
1 A psalm of David, when he fled from his son Absalom. How many, Lord, are my foes! Those who rise up against me are many.
Psalm Davidov, ko je bežal pred Absalomom, sinom svojim. Gospod, koliko je sovražnikov mojih, koliko jih vstaja proti meni!
2 Many are those who say of me, ‘There is no help for him in his God.’ (Selah)
Koliko jih govori za dušo mojo: Ni je pomoči njej v Bogu nobene.
3 But you, Lord, are shield about me, my glory, who lifts up my head.
Ti pa, Gospod, ščit si meni, slava moja, in glavo mojo vzdiguješ.
4 When loudly I call to the Lord, from his holy hill he gives answer. (Selah)
Z glasom svojim vpijočemu v Gospoda odgovoril mi je z gore svetosti svoje.
5 I laid down and slept: now I wake, for the Lord sustains me.
Jaz sem ležal in spal, zbudil sem se, ker Gospod me podpira.
6 I fear not the myriads of people who beset me on every side.
Ne bodem se bal ljudstva tisočin, katere bodo okrog razpostavili proti meni.
7 Arise, Lord: save me, my God, who strikes all my foes on the cheek, and shatters the teeth of the wicked.
Vstani, Gospod; reši me, moj Bog, ki si udaril vse sovražnike moje po čeljusti, zobe zdrobil krivičnim.
8 Victory belongs to the Lord: let your blessing descend on your people. (Selah)
Gospodovo je rešenje; nad ljudstvom tvojim blagoslov tvoj!
