Psalms 116

1 I have loved, because Jehovah heareth My voice, my supplication,

Dovolj mi je, da Gospod usliši glas moj, molitve moje.

2 Because He hath inclined His ear to me, And during my days I call.

Ker je uho svoje nagnil meni, zatorej ga bodem klical svoje dni.

3 Compassed me have cords of death, And straits of Sheol have found me, Distress and sorrow I find. (Sheol h7585)

Ko me obdajajo smrtne bolečine, in me obhajajo grobne stiske; nadlogo in žalost nahajam. (Sheol h7585)

4 And in the name of Jehovah I call: I pray Thee, O Jehovah, deliver my soul,

Če kličem ime Gospodovo, govoreč: "Rotim te, Gospod, reši dušo mojo!"

5 Gracious [is] Jehovah, and righteous, Yea, our God [is] merciful,

Milosten je Gospod, in pravičen, Bog naš, pravim, usmiljen.

6 A preserver of the simple [is] Jehovah, I was low, and to me He giveth salvation.

Preproste rešuje Gospod; ko sem ponižan, prinese mi blaginjo.

7 Turn back, O my soul, to thy rest, For Jehovah hath conferred benefits on thee.

Povrni se v pokoj svoj, duša moja, ker Gospod je dobrotljiv tebi.

8 For Thou hast delivered my soul from death, My eyes from tears, my feet from overthrowing.

Ker si otél mene samega smrti, oči moje sólz, nogo mojo padca,

9 I walk habitually before Jehovah In the lands of the living.

Neprestano bodem hodil pred Gospodom, v krajih živečih.

10 I have believed, for I speak, I — I have been afflicted greatly.

Veroval sem, ko sem hotel to govoriti; jaz sem bil aboten čez mero.

11 I said in my haste, 'Every man [is] a liar.'

Jaz sem rekel hiteč: Vsak človek je lažnjiv.

12 What do I return to Jehovah? All His benefits [are] upon me.

Kaj naj povrnem Gospodu? Vse dobrote njegove me premagujejo.

13 The cup of salvation I lift up, And in the name of Jehovah I call.

Čašo vse blaginje bodem povzdignil in slavil ime Gospodovo,

14 My vows to Jehovah let me complete, I pray you, before all His people.

Obljube svoje opravljajoč Gospodu, skôraj pred vsem ljudstvom njegovim.

15 Precious in the eyes of Jehovah [is] the death for His saints.

Draga je pred obličjem Gospodovim smrt njih, katerim izkazuje milost.

16 Cause [it] to come, O Jehovah, for I [am] Thy servant. I [am] Thy servant, son of Thy handmaid, Thou hast opened my bonds.

Prosim, Gospod, ko sem jaz hlapec tvoj, hlapec tvoj sem, dekle tvoje sin; raztrgal si vezí moje:

17 To Thee I sacrifice a sacrifice of thanks, And in the name of Jehovah I call.

Tebi naj darujem hvalno daritev, in slavim ime Gospodovo.

18 My vows to Jehovah let me complete, I pray you, before all His people,

Obljube svoje bodem opravljal Gospodu skoraj pred vsem ljudstvom njegovim;

19 In the courts of the house of Jehovah, In thy midst, O Jerusalem, praise ye Jah!

V vežah hiše Gospodove, sredi tebe, Jeruzalem. Aleluja!
