Psalmi 91
1 Kdor prebiva na skrivnem kraju Najvišjega, bo ostal pod senco Vsemogočnega.
He that dwells in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
2 Rekel bom o Gospodu: » On je moje zatočišče in moja trdnjava; moj Bog, vanj bom zaupal.«
I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
3 Zagotovo te bo osvobodil pred ptičarjevo zanko in pred ogabno kužno boleznijo.
Surely he shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the dangerous pestilence.
4 Pokril te bo s svojim perjem in pod njegovimi perutmi boš zaupal. Njegova resnica bo tvoj ščit in oklep.
He shall cover you with his feathers, and under his wings shall you trust: his truth shall be your shield and buckler.
5 Ne boš se bal zaradi strahote ponoči niti zaradi puščice, ki leti podnevi,
You shall not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flies by day;
6 niti zaradi kužne bolezni, ki hodi v temi niti zaradi uničenja, ki pustoši opoldan.
Nor for the pestilence that walks in darkness; nor for the destruction that wastes at noonday.
7 Tisoč jih bo padlo na tvoji strani in deset tisoč na tvoji desnici, toda tebi se to ne bo približalo.
A thousand shall fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come nigh you.
8 Samo s svojimi očmi boš gledal in videl nagrado zlobnih.
Only with your eyes shall you behold and see the reward of the wicked.
9 Ker si naredil Gospoda, ki je moje zatočišče, celó Najvišjega, [za] svoje prebivališče,
Because you have made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, your habitation;
10 te nobeno zlo ne zadene niti nobena nadloga ne bo prišla blizu tvojega prebivališča.
There shall no evil befall you, neither shall any plague come nigh your dwelling.
11 Kajti svojim angelom bo zapovedal nad teboj, da te varujejo na vseh tvojih poteh.
For he shall give his angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways.
12 Nosili te bodo na svojih rokah, da ne bi svojega stopala treščil ob kamen.
They shall bear you up in their hands, lest you dash your foot against a stone.
13 Stopal boš na leva in gada; mladega leva in zmaja boš pomendral pod stopali.
You shall tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shall you trample under feet.
14 Ker je svojo ljubezen naravnal name, zato ga bom osvobodil. Postavil ga bom visoko, ker je spoznal moje ime.
Because he has set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he has known my name.
15 Klical bo k meni in odgovoril mu bom. Z njim bom v stiski, osvobodil ga bom in mu izkazal čast.
He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.
16 Zadovoljil ga bom z dolgim življenjem in mu pokazal svojo rešitev duše.
With long life will I satisfy him, and show him my salvation.
