Psalms 62

1 Unto the end. For Jeduthun. A Psalm of David. Will my soul not be subject to God? For from him is my salvation.

Resnično, moja duša čaka na Boga, od njega prihaja rešitev moje duše.

2 Yes, he himself is my God and my salvation. He is my supporter; I will be moved no more.

Samo on je moja skala in rešitev moje duše, on je moja obramba, ne bom silno omajan.

3 How is it that you rush against a man? Every one of you puts to death, as if you were pulling down a ruined wall, leaning over and falling apart.

Doklej boste zoper človeka domišljali vragolijo? Vsi izmed vas boste umorjeni, kakor usločen zid boste in kakor majajoča se ograja.

4 So, truly, they intended to reject my price. I ran in thirst. They blessed with their mouth and cursed with their heart.

Samo posvetujejo se, da ga vržejo dol od njegove odličnosti, veselijo se v lažeh, blagoslavljajo s svojimi usti, toda navznoter preklinjajo. (Sela)

5 Yet, truly, my soul will be subject to God. For from him is my patience.

Moja duša, čakaj samo na Boga, kajti moje pričakovanje je od njega.

6 For he is my God and my Savior. He is my helper; I will not be expelled.

Samo on je moja skala in rešitev moje duše. On je moja obramba, ne bom omajan.

7 In God is my salvation and my glory. He is the God of my help, and my hope is in God.

V Bogu je rešitev moje duše in moja slava. Skala moje moči in moje zatočišče je v Bogu.

8 All peoples gathered together: trust in him. Pour out your hearts in his sight. God is our helper for eternity.

Ob vseh časih zaupajte vanj, ve ljudstva, svoje srce izlijte pred njim. Bog je za nas zatočišče. (Sela)

9 So, truly, the sons of men are untrustworthy. The sons of men are liars in the scales, so that, by emptiness, they may deceive among themselves.

Ljudje nizkega položaja so zagotovo ničevost in ljudje visokega položaja so laž. Položeni na tehtnico so vsi skupaj lažji kakor ničevost.

10 Do not trust in iniquity, and do not desire plunder. If riches flow toward you, do not be willing to set your heart on them.

Ne zaupaj v zatiranje in ne postani prazen v ropu. Če bogastva narastejo, svojega srca ne naveži nanje.

11 God has spoken once. I have heard two things: that power belongs to God,

Bog je spregovoril enkrat, to sem slišal dvakrat, da oblast pripada Bogu.

12 and that mercy belongs to you, O Lord. For you will repay each one according to his works.

Tudi tebi, oh Gospod, pripada usmiljenje, kajti vsakemu človeku povračaš glede na njegovo delo.
