1Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth, may Israel now say:
1{Pesem stopinj.} Mnogo so me stiskali od mladosti moje, govori naj sedaj Izrael,
2Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth: yet they have not prevailed against me.
2mnogo so me stiskali od mladosti moje, vendar me niso zmogli.
3The plowers plowed upon my back: they made long their furrows.
3Po hrbtu so mi orali orači, dolge so rezali brazde svoje.
4The LORD is righteous: he hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.
4GOSPOD je pravičen: presekal je debele vrvi brezbožnikov.
5Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion.
5Osramočeni naj bodo in nazaj pognani vsi sovražilci Siona.
6Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withereth afore it groweth up:
6Bodo naj kakor trava na strehah, ki usahne, preden vzraste,
7Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand; nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom.
7s katero ne napolni roke svoje ženjec, ne naročja svojega, kdor veže snopke,in mimogredoči ne poreko: Blagoslov GOSPODOV bodi z vami! Blagoslavljamo vas v imenu GOSPODOVEM!
8Neither do they which go by say, The blessing of the LORD be upon you: we bless you in the name of the LORD.
8in mimogredoči ne poreko: Blagoslov GOSPODOV bodi z vami! Blagoslavljamo vas v imenu GOSPODOVEM!
