¹Deliver me from mine enemies, O my God: defend me from them that rise up against me.

¹{Načelniku godbe; kakor ‚Ne pogubi!‘ Davidova zlata pesem, ko je poslal Savel može, in so stražili hišo njegovo, da bi ga umorili.} Otmi me sovražnikov mojih, moj Bog, na varno me postavi nad njimi, ki se vzpenjajo zoper mene.

²Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from bloody men.

²Otmi me njih, ki delajo krivico, in ljudi krvoločnih me reši.

³For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul: the mighty are gathered against me; not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O LORD.

³Zakaj, glej, na dušo mojo preže, zbirajo se zoper mene krepki, ne zavoljo prestopka, ne zavoljo greha mojega, GOSPOD!

⁴They run and prepare themselves without my fault: awake to help me, and behold.

⁴Brez krivde moje se stekajo in pripravljajo; vstani, pridi mi naproti in poglej!

⁵Thou therefore, O LORD God of hosts, the God of Israel, awake to visit all the heathen: be not merciful to any wicked transgressors. Selah.

⁵Ti torej, GOSPOD Bog nad vojskami, Bog Izraelov, zbúdi se, da obiščeš vse poganske narode, naj se ti ne smili ne eden hudodelcev verolomnih. (Sela.)

⁶They return at evening: they make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.

⁶Vračajo se zvečer, renče kakor psi in okrog tekajo po mestu.

⁷Behold, they belch out with their mouth: swords are in their lips: for who, say they, doth hear?

⁷Glej, iz ust jim vre hudo, meči so v njih ustnah, kajti: Kdo sliši? pravijo.

⁸But thou, O LORD, shalt laugh at them; thou shalt have all the heathen in derision.

⁸Ti pa, GOSPOD, se jim boš smejal, zasmehoval boš vse tiste narode.

⁹Because of his strength will I wait upon thee: for God is my defence.

⁹Moč moja, nate bom pazil, ker Bog je moj grad visoki.

¹⁰The God of my mercy shall prevent me: God shall let me see my desire upon mine enemies.

¹⁰Bog moj mi pride naproti z milostjo svojo, Bog mi dá, da bom z veseljem gledal sovražnike svoje.

¹¹Slay them not, lest my people forget: scatter them by thy power; and bring them down, O Lord our shield.

¹¹Ne pobij jih, da ne pozabi ljudstvo moje, s svojo močjo jih izženi, da naj blodijo, in pahni jih, o Gospod, ščit naš!

¹²For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips let them even be taken in their pride: and for cursing and lying which they speak.

¹²Greh njih ust je njih ustnic beseda; bodo naj torej ujeti v napuhu svojem in zavoljo kletvine in laži, ki jo izgovarjajo.

¹³Consume them in wrath, consume them, that they may not be: and let them know that God ruleth in Jacob unto the ends of the earth. Selah.

¹³Pokončaj jih v srdu, pokončaj, da jih ne bode več; in spoznajo naj, da Bog gospoduje v Jakobu in tja do mej zemlje. (Sela.)

¹⁴And at evening let them return; and let them make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.

¹⁴In zvečer se vračajo, renče kakor psi in okrog tekajo po mestu.

¹⁵Let them wander up and down for meat, and grudge if they be not satisfied.

¹⁵Klatijo se okoli zavoljo jedi; ko se ne nasitijo, tu prenočujejo.

¹⁶But I will sing of thy power; yea, I will sing aloud of thy mercy in the morning: for thou hast been my defence and refuge in the day of my trouble.

¹⁶Jaz pa bom pel o moči tvoji in veselo pel o milosti tvoji, ker ti si mi bil grad visoki in pribežališče ob dnevi stiske.O moč moja, tebi bom prepeval psalme, zakaj Bog je grad moj visoki, Bog milosti moje.

¹⁷Unto thee, O my strength, will I sing: for God is my defence, and the God of my mercy.

¹⁷O moč moja, tebi bom prepeval psalme, zakaj Bog je grad moj visoki, Bog milosti moje.
