¹I waited patiently for the LORD; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.

¹{Načelniku godbe. Psalm Davidov.} Stanovitno sem čakal GOSPODA, in on je, nagnivši se k meni, slišal vpitje moje.

²He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.

²In me je potegnil iz jame pogube, iz kaluže, in je postavil noge moje na skalo, utrdil korake moje.

³And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.

³In v usta moja je del novo pesem, hvalno pesem našemu Bogu: mnogi bodo to videli in se bali ter upali v GOSPODA.

⁴Blessed is that man that maketh the LORD his trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.

⁴Blagor možu, ki stavi v GOSPODA upanje svoje ter se ne ozira v prevzetnike in nje, ki odstopajo za lažjo.

⁵Many, O LORD my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.

⁵Mnoga so čuda tvoja, o GOSPOD, Bog moj, ki si jih storil, in mnoge misli tvoje za nas; nihče ni tebi enak; če bi jih hotel oznanjati in pripovedovati, preveliko jih je, da bi jih naštel.

⁶Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.

⁶Klalnih in jedilnih darov se nisi veselil, a ušesa si mi odprl, žgalnih žrtev in daritev za greh nisi zahteval.

⁷Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,

⁷Tedaj sem rekel: Glej, jaz grem – v zvitku knjige je pisano o meni;

⁸I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.

⁸veselje mi je delati tvojo voljo, Bog moj, in postava tvoja je v mojem srcu.

⁹I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have not refrained my lips, O LORD, thou knowest.

⁹Blagovestje o pravičnosti sem oznanjal v zboru velikem, glej, ustnic svojih nisem zadržaval, o GOSPOD, ti veš.

¹⁰I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and thy salvation: I have not concealed thy lovingkindness and thy truth from the great congregation.

¹⁰Pravičnosti tvoje nisem skrival v srcu svojem, zvestobo tvojo in zveličanje tvoje sem razglasil, nisem utajil milosti in resnice tvoje velikemu zboru.

¹¹Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O LORD: let thy lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me.

¹¹Ti pa, o GOSPOD, ne odtezaj mi usmiljenja svojega, milost in resnica tvoja naj me hranita vedno.

¹²For innumerable evils have compassed me about: mine iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of mine head: therefore my heart faileth me.

¹²Kajti obsula so me zla, ki jim ni števila, zgrabile so me krivice moje tako, da ne morem pregledati; več jih je nego glave moje las, in srce moje me je zapustilo.

¹³Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me: O LORD, make haste to help me.

¹³Blagovoli me oteti, o GOSPOD, hiti mi na pomoč, GOSPOD!

¹⁴Let them be ashamed and confounded together that seek after my soul to destroy it; let them be driven backward and put to shame that wish me evil.

¹⁴Osramočeni naj bodo in rdečica naj jih oblije vse vkup, ki iščejo duše moje, da jo pogube; umaknejo se naj in pridejo v nečast, ki želé nesreče moje.

¹⁵Let them be desolate for a reward of their shame that say unto me, Aha, aha.

¹⁵Ostrmé naj nad plačilom sramote svoje, ki mi pravijo: Aha, aha!

¹⁶Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: let such as love thy salvation say continually, The LORD be magnified.

¹⁶Vesele se naj in radujejo v tebi vsi, ki te iščejo; kateri ljubijo rešenje tvoje, govore naj vedno: Poveličan bodi GOSPOD!Ubog sem res in potreben, ali Gospod skrbi zame. Pomoč si moja in rešitelj moj, o Bog moj, ne odlašaj!

¹⁷But I am poor and needy; yet the Lord thinketh upon me: thou art my help and my deliverer; make no tarrying, O my God.

¹⁷Ubog sem res in potreben, ali Gospod skrbi zame. Pomoč si moja in rešitelj moj, o Bog moj, ne odlašaj!
