Psalms 30

1 A Psalm. A Song for the Dedication of the Temple. By David. I will extol you, LORD, for you have raised me up, and have not made my foes to rejoice over me.

Povzdigoval te bom, oh Gospod, kajti dvignil si me in nisi storil, da se moji nasprotniki veselijo nad menoj.

2 LORD my God, I cried to you, and you have healed me.

Oh Gospod, moj Bog, klical sem k tebi in ti si me ozdravil.

3 LORD, you have brought up my soul from Sheol. You have kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit. (Sheol h7585)

Oh Gospod, mojo dušo si privedel iz groba. Ohranil si me živega, da ne bi šel dol v jamo. (Sheol h7585)

4 Sing praise to the LORD, you holy ones of his. Give thanks to his holy name.

Prepevajte Gospodu, oh vi njegovi sveti in zahvaljujte se ob spominu njegove svetosti.

5 For his anger is but for a moment. His favour is for a lifetime. Weeping may stay for the night, but joy comes in the morning.

Kajti njegova jeza ostaja samo trenutek, v njegovi naklonjenosti je življenje. Jokanje lahko vztraja za [eno] noč, toda radost prihaja zjutraj.

6 As for me, I said in my prosperity, “I shall never be moved.”

V svojem uspevanju sem rekel: »Nikoli ne bom omajan.«

7 You, LORD, when you favoured me, made my mountain stand strong; but when you hid your face, I was troubled.

Gospod, po svoji naklonjenosti si storil, da moja gora trdno stoji. Skril si svoje obličje in sem bil zaskrbljen.

8 I cried to you, LORD. I made supplication to the Lord:

K tebi sem klical, oh Gospod in h Gospodu sem naredil ponižno prošnjo.

9 “What profit is there in my destruction, if I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise you? Shall it declare your truth?

»Kakšna korist je v moji krvi, ko pojdem dol v jamo? Mar te bo hvalil prah? Bo ta oznanjal tvojo resnico?

10 Hear, LORD, and have mercy on me. LORD, be my helper.”

Prisluhni, oh Gospod in usmili se me. Gospod, bodi moj pomočnik.«

11 You have turned my mourning into dancing for me. You have removed my sackcloth, and clothed me with gladness,

Ti si zame obrnil moje žalovanje v ples. Odložil si mojo vrečevino in me opasal z veseljem,

12 to the end that my heart may sing praise to you, and not be silent. LORD my God, I will give thanks to you forever!

z namenom, da lahko moja slava tebi poje hvalnico in ne bo molčeča. Oh Gospod, moj Bog, zahvaljeval se ti bom na veke.
