¹Save me, O God; for the waters are come in unto my soul.

¹{Načelniku godbe; kakor ‚Lilije‘. Psalm Davidov.} Reši me, o Bog, ker vode so mi prišle že do duše.

²I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing: I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.

²Pogrezam se v blato pregloboko, kjer ni tal pod nogo, zašel sem v globočino vodá, roj valov pritiska name.

³I am weary of my crying: my throat is dried: mine eyes fail while I wait for my God.

³S kričanjem sem se utrudil, vnelo se je grlo moje, oči moje pešajo, ko čakam svojega Boga.

⁴They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of mine head: they that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty: then I restored that which I took not away.

⁴Več jih je, nego glave moje las, ki me črté brez vzroka, močni so, ki me hočejo uničiti, sovražniki mi po krivici; česar nisem vzel, me silijo vrniti.

⁵O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my sins are not hid from thee.

⁵O Bog, ti poznaš nespamet mojo in prestopki moji ti niso skriti.

⁶Let not them that wait on thee, O Lord GOD of hosts, be ashamed for my sake: let not those that seek thee be confounded for my sake, O God of Israel.

⁶Ne bodi jih spričo mene sram, ki tebe čakajo, o Gospod, GOSPOD nad vojskami; rdečica naj ne oblije zaradi mene njih, ki iščejo tebe, Bog Izraelov.

⁷Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my face.

⁷Zakaj zavoljo tebe prenašam zasmehovanje, sramota je pokrila obličje moje.

⁸I am become a stranger unto my brethren, and an alien unto my mother's children.

⁸Tujec sem postal bratom svojim in neznanec matere svoje sinovom.

⁹For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.

⁹Kajti gorečnost za hišo tvojo me je razjedla, in zasmehovanje njih, ki tebe zasmehujejo, je zadelo mene.

¹⁰When I wept, and chastened my soul with fasting, that was to my reproach.

¹⁰Ko sem jokal in s postom pokoril dušo svojo, bilo mi je le v zasmehovanje.

¹¹I made sackcloth also my garment; and I became a proverb to them.

¹¹Ko sem se oblačil v raševino, tedaj sem jim bil v pregovor.

¹²They that sit in the gate speak against me; and I was the song of the drunkards.

¹²O meni govoričijo, kateri posedajo pri vratih, za pesem pa sem njim, ki pijejo opojno pijačo.

¹³But as for me, my prayer is unto thee, O LORD, in an acceptable time: O God, in the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy salvation.

¹³Jaz pa – prošnja moja je do tebe, GOSPOD, ob času milosti. O Bog, po obilosti milosti svoje me usliši, po zveličalni resnici svoji.

¹⁴Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink: let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.

¹⁴Potegni me iz blata, da se ne pogreznem, otet naj bodem sovražilcev svojih in iz globočin vodá.

¹⁵Let not the waterflood overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me up, and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.

¹⁵Valovje vodá naj me ne potopi in globočina naj me ne pogoltne, in jama naj ne zapre žrela svojega nad mano.

¹⁶Hear me, O LORD; for thy lovingkindness is good: turn unto me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.

¹⁶Odgovóri mi, GOSPOD, ker dobra je milost tvoja, po obilosti usmiljenja svojega ozri se v me.

¹⁷And hide not thy face from thy servant; for I am in trouble: hear me speedily.

¹⁷In ne skrivaj obličja svojega svojemu hlapcu, ker v stiski sem, hitro mi odgovóri!

¹⁸Draw nigh unto my soul, and redeem it: deliver me because of mine enemies.

¹⁸Približaj se duši moji, reši jo, zavoljo sovražnikov mojih me odkupi!

¹⁹Thou hast known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonour: mine adversaries are all before thee.

¹⁹Ti poznaš zasramovanje moje in mojo sramoto ter nečast mojo, pred teboj so vsi sovražniki moji.

²⁰Reproach hath broken my heart; and I am full of heaviness: and I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none.

²⁰Sramotenje je potrlo srce moje in hudo sem bolan; in čakal sem, da bi me kdo miloval, pa ni bilo nikogar, čakal sem tolažiteljev, pa jih nisem dobil.

²¹They gave me also gall for my meat; and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.

²¹Dá, za jed so mi dali žolča in v žeji moji so mi dali piti octa.

²²Let their table become a snare before them: and that which should have been for their welfare, let it become a trap.

²²Njih miza bodi pred njimi za zanko in brezskrbno njih življenje za zadrgo.

²³Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not; and make their loins continually to shake.

²³Otemné naj njih oči, da ne vidijo, in daj, da ledja njih omahujejo neprestano.

²⁴Pour out thine indignation upon them, and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them.

²⁴Izlij nanje jezo svojo in srd tvoj naj jih dohiti.

²⁵Let their habitation be desolate; and let none dwell in their tents.

²⁵Pusto bodi njih bivališče, v šatorih njih ne bodi prebivalca.

²⁶For they persecute him whom thou hast smitten; and they talk to the grief of those whom thou hast wounded.

²⁶Kajti preganjajo njega, ki si ga ti udaril, in spletajo pripovedke o bolečini prebodencev tvojih.

²⁷Add iniquity unto their iniquity: and let them not come into thy righteousness.

²⁷Pridevaj krivico njih krivici, in ne dosežejo naj pravičnosti tvoje.

²⁸Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written with the righteous.

²⁸Izbrišejo naj se iz življenja knjige, in s pravičnimi naj se ne zapišejo.

²⁹But I am poor and sorrowful: let thy salvation, O God, set me up on high.

²⁹Jaz pa sem ubožen in v bolečini; rešitev tvoja, o Bog, postavi me na varno.

³⁰I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.

³⁰Hvalil bom ime Božje s pesmijo in poveličeval ga z zahvaljevanjem.

³¹This also shall please the LORD better than an ox or bullock that hath horns and hoofs.

³¹To bode všeč GOSPODU bolj nego vol, junec z rogovi in z razdeljenimi parklji.

³²The humble shall see this, and be glad: and your heart shall live that seek God.

³²Ko bodo to videli krotki, se bodo veselili; naj oživi srce vaše, ki iščete Boga!

³³For the LORD heareth the poor, and despiseth not his prisoners.

³³Zakaj GOSPOD se ozira na potrebne in jetnikov svojih ne zameta.

³⁴Let the heaven and earth praise him, the seas, and every thing that moveth therein.

³⁴Hvalijo naj ga nebesa in zemlja, morja in karkoli lazi po njih.

³⁵For God will save Zion, and will build the cities of Judah: that they may dwell there, and have it in possession.

³⁵Zakaj Bog dá rešitev Sionu in sezida mesta Judova, da bodo stanovali tam in podedovali deželo.In zarodi hlapcev njegovih jo bodo posedli, in kateri ljubijo ime njegovo, v njej prebivali.

³⁶The seed also of his servants shall inherit it: and they that love his name shall dwell therein.

³⁶In zarodi hlapcev njegovih jo bodo posedli, in kateri ljubijo ime njegovo, v njej prebivali.
