Psalms 59
1 To the Chief Musician. "Do not Destroy." A precious Psalm of David. When Saul sent, and they watched the house, to kill him. Rescue me from my foes, O my God, From them who lift themselves up against me, wilt thou set me on high:
Osvobodi me pred mojimi sovražniki, oh moj Bog. Brani me pred tistimi, ki se dvigujejo zoper mene.
2 Rescue me, from the workers of iniquity, And, from the men of bloodshed, save me.
Osvobodi me pred delavci krivičnosti in reši me pred krvoločnimi ljudmi.
3 For lo! they have lain in wait for my life, Mighty ones stir up strife against me, Without transgression of mine, and without sin of mine, O Yahweh;
Kajti, glej, za mojo dušo prežijo v zasedi, mogočni so se zbrali zoper mene; ne zaradi mojega prestopka niti ne zaradi mojega greha, oh Gospod.
4 For no iniquity, do they run that they may take their stand, Rouse thyself to meet me, and see.
Brez moje krivde tečejo in se pripravljajo. Zbudi se, da mi pomagaš in glej.
5 Thou, therefore, O Yahweh, God of hosts, God of Israel, Awake, to visit all the nations, Do not show favour to any iniquitous traitors. (Selah)
Ti torej, oh Gospod Bog nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog, zbudi se, da obiščeš vse pogane. Z nobenim zlobnim prestopnikom ne bodi usmiljen. (Sela)
6 They return at evening, They grow like a dog, And go round the city.
Vračajo se zvečer, zganjajo hrup kakor pes in krožijo po mestu.
7 Lo! they belch forth with their mouth, Swords, are in their lips, For [say they], Who doth hear?
Glej, s svojimi usti bruhajo, meči so na njihovih ustnicah, kajti pravijo: »Kdo sliši?«
8 Thou, therefore, O Yahweh, wilt laugh at them, Thou wilt mock at all nations.
Toda ti, oh Gospod, se jim boš posmehoval, vse pogane boš imel v posmeh.
9 O my Strength, unto thee, will I make melody, For, God, is my high tower.
Zaradi njegove moči bom čakal nate, kajti Bog je moja obramba.
10 My God of lovingkindness, will come to meet me, God, will let me look on mine adversaries.
Bog mojega usmiljenja me bo vodil. Bog mi bo dal videti mojo željo na mojih sovražnikih.
11 Do not slay them, lest my people forget, Cause them to wander by thy strength, and prostrate them, [Thou] our shield, O Lord!
Ne ubij jih, da ne bi moje ljudstvo pozabilo. Razkropi jih s svojo močjo in zlomi jih, oh Gospod, naš ščit.
12 The sin of their mouth, The word of their lips, Let them then be captured in their pride, Both for the oath and for the deception they record.
Zaradi greha njihovih ust in besed njihovih ustnic naj bodo celó prijeti v svojem ponosu in za preklinjanje in laži, katere govorijo.
13 Bring to a full end in wrath, Bring to a full end, that they be no more, —That men may know that, God, is ruling in Jacob, Unto the ends of the earth. (Selah)
Použij jih v besu, použij jih, da jih ne bo in naj spoznajo, da Bog vlada v Jakobu do koncev zemlje. (Sela)
14 Let them return, then, at evening, Let them growl like a dog, And go round the city.
Zvečer naj se vrnejo in naj zganjajo hrup kakor pes ter krožijo po mestu.
15 They, may prowl about for food, —And, if they are not satisfied, then let them whine!
Naj se potikajo gor in dol za hrano in godrnjajo, če ne bodo nasičeni.
16 But, I, will sing thy power, And will shout aloud, in the morning, thy lovingkindness, —For thou has become a refuge for me, And a place to flee to in the day of my distress.
Toda jaz bom prepeval o tvoji moči, da, zjutraj bom na glas prepeval o tvojem usmiljenju, kajti ti si bil moja obramba in zatočišče na dan moje stiske.
17 O my Strength, unto thee, will I make melody, For, God, is my high tower, my God of lovingkindness.
Tebi, oh moja moč, bom prepeval, kajti Bog je moja obramba in Bog mojega usmiljenja.
