< Psalms 41 >

1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. Blessed is he who considers the poor. Yahweh will deliver him in the day of evil.
Načelniku godbe, psalm Davidov. Blagor mu, kdor se spominja siromaka, govoreč: O času nadloge bode ga otél Gospod.
2 Yahweh will preserve him, and keep him alive. He shall be blessed on the earth, and he will not surrender him to the will of his enemies.
Gospod ga bode rešil, ohranil življenju; srečen bode na zemlji, in ne izdajaj ga želji sovražnikov njegovih.
3 Yahweh will sustain him on his sickbed, and restore him from his bed of illness.
Gospod naj ga podpira na postelji slabosti: vse ležišče njegovo vsled bolezni njegove preméni,
4 I said, “Yahweh, have mercy on me! Heal me, for I have sinned against you.”
Ko govorim: Gospod, milost mi stóri, ozdravi dušo mojo, ker tebi sem grešil.
5 My enemies speak evil against me: “When will he die, and his name perish?”
Sovražniki moji so slabo govorili o meni: Kdaj bode umrl in bode izginilo ime njegovo?
6 If he comes to see me, he speaks falsehood. His heart gathers iniquity to itself. When he goes abroad, he tells it.
Ko je tedaj prihajal obiskat me kdó, govorilo je laž srce njegovo; zbiralo si je krivico: šel je ven in právil.
7 All who hate me whisper together against me. They imagine the worst for me.
Vkup so šepetali zoper mene vsi sovražniki moji; zoper mene so izmišljali, kar bi mi bilo v zlo, govoreč:
8 “An evil disease”, they say, “has afflicted him. Now that he lies he shall rise up no more.”
Stvar silno malopridna tiči v njem globoko, in ker leži, več ne vstane.
9 Yes, my own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, who ate bread with me, has lifted up his heel against me.
Tudi mož, ki je živel v miru z menoj, v katerega sem zaupal, kateri je jedel mojo jed, vzdignil je peto proti meni.
10 But you, Yahweh, have mercy on me, and raise me up, that I may repay them.
Ti pa, Gospod, storí mi milost, in zbúdi me, da jim povrnem.
11 By this I know that you delight in me, because my enemy doesn’t triumph over me.
12 As for me, you uphold me in my integrity, and set me in your presence forever.
13 Blessed be Yahweh, the God of Israel, from everlasting and to everlasting! Amen and amen.
