< Psalms 16 >

1 A Poem by David. Preserve me, God, for I take refuge in you.
Odlična pesem Davidova. Reši me, Bog mogočni; ker k tebi pribegam:
2 My soul, you have said to Yahweh, “You are my Lord. Apart from you I have no good thing.”
Gospodu govoriš: Gospod si moj, blaga mojega ne bodeš hranil pri sebi:
3 As for the saints who are in the earth, they are the excellent ones in whom is all my delight.
Svetim, ki so v deželi in veličastnim ga podeliš; na katerih je vse razveseljevanje moje.
4 Their sorrows shall be multiplied who give gifts to another god. Their drink offerings of blood I will not offer, nor take their names on my lips.
Njim množijo bolečine kateri drugemu delé; daroval ne bodem njih krvavih daritev, ne jemal njih imen na ustne svoje.
5 Yahweh assigned my portion and my cup. You made my lot secure.
Gospod je delež pristave moje in mojega ljudstva; ti vzdržuješ osodo mojo.
6 The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places. Yes, I have a good inheritance.
Mérne vrvi so mi pale v preprijetnih krajih; tudi posestvo je sprelepo, katero me je doletelo.
7 I will bless Yahweh, who has given me counsel. Yes, my heart instructs me in the night seasons.
Blagoslavljal bodem Gospoda, kateri mi je dal sovèt; tudi ponoči me podučujejo obisti moje.
8 I have set Yahweh always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
Predočujem si Gospoda neprestano; ker je na desnici moji, ne omahnem.
9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my tongue rejoices. My body shall also dwell in safety.
Zatorej se veseli srce moje in raduje se slava moja; tudi meso moje prebiva brez skrbi.
10 For you will not leave my soul in Sheol, neither will you allow your holy one to see corruption. (Sheol h7585)
Ker duše moje ne bodeš pustil v grobu, ne pripustil ljubljencu svojemu, da vidi trohnobo. (Sheol h7585)
11 You will show me the path of life. In your presence is fullness of joy. In your right hand there are pleasures forever more.
Naznanjaš mi življenja stezo; najslajših radosti obilost pred obličjem tvojim, na desnici tvoji vekomaj.
