Psalms 60

1 To the chief Musician. On Shushan. Testimony. Michtam of David; to teach: when he strove with the Syrians of Mesopotamia, and the Syrians of Zobah, and Joab returned, and smote the Edomites in the valley of salt, twelve thousand. O God, thou hast cast us off, thou hast scattered us, thou hast been displeased: restore us again.

Oh Bog, zavrgel si nas, razkropil si nas, razžaljen si bil; oh, ponovno se obrni k nam.

2 Thou hast made the earth to tremble, thou hast rent it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh.

Storil si, da zemlja trepeta, zlomil si jo; zaceli njene vrzeli, kajti trese se.

3 Thou hast shewn thy people hard things; thou hast made us to drink the wine of bewilderment.

Svojemu ljudstvu si pokazal težke stvari. Storil si nam, da pijemo vino osuplosti.

4 Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee, that it may be displayed because of the truth, (Selah)

Tem, ki se te bojijo, si dal prapor, da bi bil ta lahko dvignjen zaradi resnice. (Sela)

5 That thy beloved ones may be delivered. Save with thy right hand, and answer me.

Da bodo tvoji ljubljeni lahko osvobojeni, reši s svojo desnico in me usliši.

6 God hath spoken in his holiness: I will exult, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.

Bog je spregovoril v svoji svetosti: »Veselil se bom, razdelil bom Sihem in odmeril Sukótsko dolino.

7 Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine, and Ephraim is the strength of my head; Judah is my law-giver;

Gileád je moj in Manáse je moj; tudi Efrájim je moč moje glave, Juda je moj postavodajalec,

8 Moab is my wash-pot; upon Edom will I cast my sandal; Philistia, shout aloud because of me.

Moáb je moj lonec za pranje, nad Edóm bom vrgel svoj čevelj; Filisteja zmaguj zaradi mene.«

9 Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me unto Edom?

Kdo me bo privedel v utrjeno mesto? Kdo me bo vodil v Edóm?

10 [Wilt] not thou, O God, who didst cast us off? and didst not go forth, O God, with our armies?

Mar ne ti, oh Bog, ki si nas zavrgel? In ti, oh Bog, ki nisi odšel z našimi vojskami?

11 Give us help from trouble; for vain is man's deliverance.

Daj nam pomoč iz stiske, kajti prazna je človeška pomoč.

12 Through God we shall do valiantly; and he it is that will tread down our adversaries.

Zaradi Boga bomo delali hrabro, kajti on je ta, ki bo pomendral naše sovražnike.
