¹In that day shall this song be sung in the land of Judah; We have a strong city; salvation will God appoint for walls and bulwarks.

¹Toho dňa sa bude spievať táto pieseň v zemi Júdovej: Máme silné mesto! Bôh nám dal spasenie za múr a val.

²Open ye the gates, that the righteous nation which keepeth the truth may enter in.

²Otvorte brány, aby vošiel spravedlivý národ, ostríhajúci vernosť.

³Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.

³Človeka, ktorého myseľ je opretá na teba, Bože, zachováš v pokoji, áno, v pokoji, lebo sa nadeje na teba.

⁴Trust ye in the LORD for ever: for in the LORD JEHOVAH is everlasting strength:

⁴Nadejte sa na Hospodina na večné veky, pretože v Hospod-Hospodinovi je skala vekov.

⁵For he bringeth down them that dwell on high; the lofty city, he layeth it low; he layeth it low, even to the ground; he bringeth it even to the dust.

⁵Lebo zohnul tých, ktorí bývajú vysoko, vyvýšené mesto; áno, poníži ho, poníži ho až k zemi, srazí ho až do prachu.

⁶The foot shall tread it down, even the feet of the poor, and the steps of the needy.

⁶Noha ho zašliape, nohy biedneho, kroky chudobných.

⁷The way of the just is uprightness: thou, most upright, dost weigh the path of the just.

⁷Cestou spravedlivému je priamosť. Ty súc priamy urovnávaš drahu spravedlivého.

⁸Yea, in the way of thy judgments, O LORD, have we waited for thee; the desire of our soul is to thy name, and to the remembrance of thee.

⁸Ešte aj na ceste tvojich súdov očakávame na teba, Hospodine; po tvojom mene a po rozpomienke na teba nesie sa túžba duše.

⁹With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early: for when thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.

⁹Svojou dušou túžim po tebe vnoci, áno, svojím duchom v sebe ťa hľadám za skorého rána; lebo keď posielaš svoje súdy na zem, obyvatelia okruhu sveta sa učia spravedlivosti.

¹⁰Let favour be shewed to the wicked, yet will he not learn righteousness: in the land of uprightness will he deal unjustly, and will not behold the majesty of the LORD.

¹⁰Keď sa aj učiní bezbožnému milosť, on sa jednako nenaučí spravedlivosti; v zemi pravosti robí prevrátene a nevidí velebnosti Hospodinovej.

¹¹LORD, when thy hand is lifted up, they will not see: but they shall see, and be ashamed for their envy at the people; yea, the fire of thine enemies shall devour them.

¹¹Hospodine, hoci je vysoko vyvýšená tvoja ruka, nevidia. No, uvidia a budú sa hanbiť pre závisť, že závideli tvojmu ľudu, áno, oheň strávi tvojich protivníkov.

¹²LORD, thou wilt ordain peace for us: for thou also hast wrought all our works in us.

¹²Hospodine, ty nám spôsobíš pokoj, lebo i všetky naše skutky si ty vykonal za nás.

¹³O LORD our God, other lords beside thee have had dominion over us: but by thee only will we make mention of thy name.

¹³Hospodine, náš Bože, panovali nad nami aj iní páni krome teba; no, my sa nadejeme iba na teba a pripomíname si iba tvoje meno.

¹⁴They are dead, they shall not live; they are deceased, they shall not rise: therefore hast thou visited and destroyed them, and made all their memory to perish.

¹⁴Pomreli, neožijú; mŕtvi sú, viacej nevstanú. Tak si tedy navštívil a zahladil si ich a zahubíš i každú pamiatku na nich.

¹⁵Thou hast increased the nation, O LORD, thou hast increased the nation: thou art glorified: thou hadst removed it far unto all the ends of the earth.

¹⁵Rozmnožil si národ, Hospodine, rozmnožil si národ, si oslávený, ďaleko si posunul všetky konce zeme.

¹⁶LORD, in trouble have they visited thee, they poured out a prayer when thy chastening was upon them.

¹⁶Hospodine, v súžení ťa hľadali a navštívili; vylievali pokorné prosby tiché, keď si ich trestal a káznil.

¹⁷Like as a woman with child, that draweth near the time of her delivery, is in pain, and crieth out in her pangs; so have we been in thy sight, O LORD.

¹⁷Ako tehotná žena, ktorá sa blíži k porodu, že sa svíja a kričí vo svojich bolestiach, takí sme boli pred tvojou tvárou, ó, Hospodine.

¹⁸We have been with child, we have been in pain, we have as it were brought forth wind; we have not wrought any deliverance in the earth; neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen.

¹⁸Tehotneli sme, svíjali sme sa, a keď sme porodili, bol to vietor; nijakého spasenia sme nespôsobili zemi, ani nepadli obyvatelia okruhu sveta.

¹⁹Thy dead men shall live, together with my dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.

¹⁹Tvoji mŕtvi ožijú, moje mŕtve telo, vstanú. Prebuďte sa plesajte vy, ktorí bývate v prachu! Lebo tvoja rosa je rosou svetiel, a zem vyvrhne mŕtvych.

²⁰Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast.

²⁰Idi, môj ľude, vojdi do svojich komôr, zatvor svoje dvere za sebou; skry sa na malú chvíľu, kým neprejde zúrivý hnev.

²¹For, behold, the LORD cometh out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.

²¹Lebo hľa, Hospodin vyjde zo svojho miesta navštíviť neprávosť obyvateľov zeme, na každom z nich. Vtedy odkryje zem svoju krv a nebude viacej prikrývať svojich pobitých.
