Psalms 34
1 By David; when he pretended to be insane before Abimelech, who drove him away, and he departed. I will bless the LORD at all times. His praise will always be in my mouth.
Ob vseh časih bom blagoslavljal Gospoda, njegova hvala bo nenehno na mojih ustih.
2 My soul shall boast in the LORD. The humble shall hear of it and be glad.
Moja duša bo storila svoje bahanje v Gospodu. Ponižni bodo o tem slišali in bodo veseli.
3 Oh magnify the LORD with me. Let’s exalt his name together.
Oh poveličujte z menoj Gospoda in skupaj poveličujmo njegovo ime.
4 I sought the LORD, and he answered me, and delivered me from all my fears.
Iskal sem Gospoda in me je uslišal ter me osvobodil pred vsemi mojimi strahovi.
5 They looked to him, and were radiant. Their faces shall never be covered with shame.
Pogledali so k njemu in bili ožarjeni in njihovi obrazi niso bili osramočeni.
6 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.
Ta revež je zajokal in Gospod ga je uslišal ter ga rešil pred vsemi njegovimi težavami.
7 The LORD’s angel encamps around those who fear him, and delivers them.
Gospodov angel tabori okoli teh, ki se ga bojijo in jih osvobaja.
8 Oh taste and see that the LORD is good. Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him.
Oh okusite in vidite, da je Gospod dober. Blagoslovljen je človek, ki zaupa vanj.
9 Oh fear the LORD, you his saints, for there is no lack with those who fear him.
Oh bojte se Gospoda, vi njegovi sveti, kajti nič ne manjka tem, ki se ga bojijo.
10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger, but those who seek the LORD shall not lack any good thing.
Mladim levom primanjkuje in trpijo lakoto, toda tistim, ki iščejo Gospoda, ne bo manjkala nobena dobra stvar.
11 Come, you children, listen to me. I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
Pridite, otroci, prisluhnite mi. Strahu Gospodovega vas bom učil.
12 Who is someone who desires life, and loves many days, that he may see good?
Kakšen človek je tisti, ki želi življenje in ljubi mnoge dneve, da bi lahko videl dobro?
13 Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking lies.
Zadržuj svoj jezik pred zlom in svoje ustnice od govorjenja zvijače.
14 Depart from evil, and do good. Seek peace, and pursue it.
Odidi od zla in delaj dobro, išči mir in ga zasleduj.
15 The LORD’s eyes are toward the righteous. His ears listen to their cry.
Gospodove oči so na pravičnih in njegova ušesa so odprta k njihovemu klicanju.
16 The LORD’s face is against those who do evil, to cut off their memory from the earth.
Gospodovo obličje je zoper te, ki delajo zlo, da z zemlje iztrebi spomin na njih.
17 The righteous cry, and the LORD hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles.
Pravični kličejo in Gospod uslišuje ter jih osvobaja iz vseh njihovih stisk.
18 The LORD is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit.
Gospod je blizu tem, ki so zlomljenega srca in rešuje takšne, ki so skesanega duha.
19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him out of them all.
Mnoge so stiske pravičnega, toda Gospod ga osvobaja iz njih vseh.
20 He protects all of his bones. Not one of them is broken.
Varuje vse njegove kosti niti ena izmed njih ni zlomljena.
21 Evil shall kill the wicked. Those who hate the righteous shall be condemned.
Zlo bo pokončalo zlobnega in tisti, ki sovražijo pravične, bodo zapuščeni.
22 The LORD redeems the soul of his servants. None of those who take refuge in him shall be condemned.
Gospod odkupuje dušo svojih služabnikov in nobeden od teh, ki zaupajo vanj, ne bo zapuščen.
