Psalmi 27
1 Gospod je moja svetloba in rešitev moje duše, koga bi se bal? Gospod je moč mojega življenja; pred kom bom prestrašen?
[A Psalm] of David. The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
2 Kadar so prišli nadme zlobni, celó moji sovražniki in moji nasprotniki, da požro moje meso, so se spotaknili in padli.
When evil-doers came upon me to eat up my flesh, [even] mine adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell.
3 Čeprav bi se zoper mene utaborila vojska, se moje srce ne bo balo. Četudi bi se zoper mene dvignila vojna, bom jaz pri tem zaupljiv.
Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, even then will I be confident.
4 Eno stvar sem želel od Gospoda, to hočem doseči, da bom lahko prebival v Gospodovi hiši vse dni svojega življenja, da zrem Gospodovo lepoto in da poizvedujem v njegovem templju.
One thing have I asked of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to inquire in his temple.
5 Kajti v času stiske me bo skril v svojem paviljonu. Skril me bo v skrivnosti svojega šotorskega svetišča, postavil me bo na skalo.
For in the day of trouble he shall keep me secretly in his pavilion: in the covert of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall lift me up upon a rock.
6 Sedaj bo moja glava povzdignjena nad moje sovražnike okoli mene, zato bom v njegovem šotorskem svetišču daroval žrtvovanje radosti; pel bom, da, prepeval bom hvalnice Gospodu.
And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me; and I will offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD.
7 Poslušaj, oh Gospod, ko kličem s svojim glasom. Tudi nad menoj imej usmiljenje in mi odgovori.
Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me.
8 Ko praviš: »Iščite moje obličje, « ti je moje srce reklo: »Tvoje obličje, Gospod, bom iskal.«
[When thou saidst], Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek.
9 Ne skrivaj svojega obličja daleč od mene, svojega služabnika ne odslovi v jezi. Bil si moja pomoč; ne zapusti me niti se me ne odpovej, oh Bog rešitve moje duše.
Hide not thy face from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; cast me not off, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.
10 Ko me moj oče in moja mati zapustita, potem me bo Gospod pobral.
For my father and my mother have forsaken me, but the LORD will take me up.
11 Úči me svoje poti, oh Gospod in vodi me po ravni stezi, zaradi mojih sovražnikov.
Teach me thy way, O LORD; and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies.
12 Ne izroči me volji mojih sovražnikov, kajti krive priče so vstale zoper mene in takšni, ki izdihujejo krutost.
Deliver me not over unto the will of mine adversaries: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.
13 Oslabel sem, razen če sem veroval, da vidim Gospodovo dobroto v deželi živih.
[I had fainted], unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.
14 Čakaj na Gospoda, bodi odločnega poguma in okrepil bo tvoje srce. Čakaj, pravim, na Gospoda.
Wait on the LORD: be strong, and let thine heart take courage; yea, wait thou on the LORD.
