< Psalms 35 >

1 A Psalme of Dauid. Pleade thou my cause, O Lord, with them that striue with me: fight thou against them, that fight against me.
Zagovarjaj mojo pravdo, oh Gospod, s temi, ki se prepirajo z menoj. Bori se zoper te, ki se borijo zoper mene.
2 Lay hand vpon the shielde and buckler, and stand vp for mine helpe.
Zgrabi za ščit in majhen ščit ter se dvigni v mojo pomoč.
3 Bring out also the speare and stop the way against them, that persecute me: say vnto my soule, I am thy saluation.
Izvleci tudi sulico in zapri pot zoper tiste, ki me preganjajo. Moji duši reci: »Jaz sem rešitev tvoje duše.«
4 Let them be confounded and put to shame, that seeke after my soule: let them be turned backe, and brought to confusion, that imagine mine hurt.
Naj bodo zbegani in osramočeni tisti, ki strežejo po moji duši. Naj bodo obrnjeni nazaj in privedeni v zmedenost tisti, ki snujejo mojo bolečino.
5 Let them be as chaffe before the winde, and let the Angel of the Lord scatter them.
Naj bodo kakor pleve pred vetrom. Naj jih preganja Gospodov angel.
6 Let their way be darke and slipperie: and let the Angel of the Lord persecute them.
Naj bo njihova pot temna in spolzka in naj jih preganja Gospodov angel.
7 For without cause they haue hid the pit and their net for me: without cause haue they digged a pit for my soule.
Kajti brez razloga so svojo mrežo skrili zame v jamo, ki so jo brez razloga izkopali za mojo dušo.
8 Let destruction come vpon him at vnwares, and let his net, that he hath laid priuilie, take him: let him fall into the same destruction.
Naj nadenj nenadoma pride uničenje in naj ga ujame njegova mreža, ki jo je nastavil, naj pade v točno takšno uničenje.
9 Then my soule shalbe ioyfull in the Lord: it shall reioyce in his saluation.
Moja duša pa bo radostna v Gospodu, veselila se bo v njegovi rešitvi duše.
10 All my bones shall say, Lord, who is like vnto thee, which deliuerest the poore from him, that is too strong for him! yea, the poore and him that is in miserie, from him that spoyleth him!
Vse moje kosti bodo rekle: » Gospod, kdo je podoben tebi, ki osvobajaš reveža pred tistim, ki je zanj premočan, da, reveža in pomoči potrebnega pred tistim, ki ga pleni?«
11 Cruell witnesses did rise vp: they asked of me things that I knewe not.
Vstale so krive priče, k moji obtožnici so položili stvari, ki jih nisem poznal.
12 They rewarded me euill for good, to haue spoyled my soule.
Nagradili so me [z] zlom za dobro, do plenjenja moje duše.
13 Yet I, when they were sicke, I was clothed with a sacke: I humbled my soule with fasting: and my praier was turned vpon my bosome.
Toda kar se mene tiče, ko so bili bolni, so bila moja oblačila vrečevina. Svojo dušo sem ponižal s postom in moja molitev se je vrnila v mojo lastno notranjost.
14 I behaued my selfe as to my friend, or as to my brother: I humbled my selfe, mourning as one that bewaileth his mother.
Vêdel sem se, kakor da je bil on moj prijatelj ali brat. Močno sem se sklonil kakor nekdo, ki žaluje za svojo materjo.
15 But in mine aduersitie they reioyced, and gathered them selues together: the abiects assembled themselues against me, and knewe not: they tare me and ceased not,
Toda v moji nadlogi so se veselili in se zbirali skupaj. Da, podleži so se zbirali zoper mene, pa tega nisem vedel, trgali so me in niso odnehali,
16 With the false skoffers at bankets, gnashing their teeth against me.
s hinavskimi zasmehovalci so na pojedinah s svojimi zobmi škripali nad menoj.
17 Lord, how long wilt thou beholde this? deliuer my soule from their tumult, euen my desolate soule from the lions.
Gospod, doklej boš gledal? Mojo dušo reši pred njihovimi uničenji, mojo ljubljeno pred levi.
18 So will I giue thee thankes in a great Congregation: I will praise thee among much people.
Zahvaljeval se ti bom v veliki skupnosti. Hvalil te bom med mnogimi ljudmi.
19 Let not them that are mine enemies, vniustly reioyce ouer mee, neyther let them winke with the eye, that hate mee without a cause.
Naj se tisti, ki so moji sovražniki, ne veselijo krivično nad menoj niti naj ne mežikajo z očesom tisti, ki me sovražijo brez razloga.
20 For they speake not as friendes: but they imagine deceitfull woordes against the quiet of the lande.
Kajti ne govorijo miru, temveč snujejo varljive zadeve zoper tiste, ki so v deželi mirni.
21 And they gaped on mee with their mouthes, saying, Aha, aha, our eye hath seene.
Da, svoja usta so široko odprli proti meni in rekli: »Aha, aha, naše oko je to videlo.«
22 Thou hast seene it, O Lord: keepe not silence: be not farre from me, O Lord.
To si videl, oh Gospod. Ne molči. Oh Gospod, ne bodi daleč od mene.
23 Arise and wake to my iudgement, euen to my cause, my God, and my Lord.
Razvnemi se in prebudi se na mojo sodbo, celó za mojo zadevo, moj Bog in moj Gospod.
24 Iudge me, O Lord my God, according to thy righteousnesse, and let them not reioyce ouer mee.
Sodi me, oh Gospod, moj Bog, glede na tvojo pravičnost in naj se ne veselijo nad menoj.
25 Let them not say in their hearts, O our soule reioyce: neither let them say, We haue deuoured him.
Naj ne pravijo v svojih srcih: »Ah, tako smo to želeli.« Naj ne pravijo: »Požrli smo ga.«
26 Let them bee confounded, and put to shame together, that reioyce at mine hurt: let them bee clothed with confusion and shame, that lift vp themselues against me.
Naj bodo osramočeni in skupaj privedeni v zmedenost tisti, ki se veselijo ob moji bolečini. Naj bodo tisti, ki se poveličujejo zoper mene, oblečeni z nečastjo in sramoto.
27 But let them be ioyful and glad, that loue my righteousnesse: yea, let them say alway, Let the Lord be magnified, which loueth the prosperitie of his seruant.
Naj tisti, ki podpirajo mojo pravično zadevo, vzklikajo od veselja in bodo veseli. Da, naj nenehno govorijo: »Naj bo poveličan Gospod, ki ima veselje v uspevanju svojega služabnika.«
28 And my tongue shall vtter thy righteousnesse, and thy praise euery day.
Moj jezik pa bo ves dan govoril o tvoji pravičnosti in o tvoji hvali.
